    I wonder how these keep popping up here. Including the other one I found a while back (here: https://iacmc.forumotion.com/t11970-usmc-m52-flak-jacket) and
    one with the plates cut out that I didn't buy (also because it's the same as the above), this is already the 3rd one I find here in Holland...

    Looks to be about the same type as my other one, but the material is different, it's like cotton twill, while the other one seems synthetic nylon-ish, and very thin.
    The straps are also thicker and another color.
    It's in better condition overall, except that the tag has turned white except for the number 2 on it.

    Also, I don't know the exact types of these, I think my other one is a 2nd, might this be a 3rd, or a late 2nd?
