Description

Protect yourself from the elements with this piece of Korean War history. We are offering a 1952 dated Lightweight Poncho.

  • Date: The 1952 date stamp places its production right in the middle of the Korean conflict, ensuring historical accuracy for collectors and reenactors.

  • USMC Provenance: Commonly issued to Marines who faced harsh weather conditions on the Korean peninsula.

  • Condition: Surplus condition. (Note: These early nylon ponchos are prone to stiffening or "sticky" coating – please check condition).
