Eastman claims that the original specs called for Olive Capeskin for the A-1 Flight jacket. The documentation I have seen says the test samples were made in 1. Brown & 2.Tan. It appears that G&F was the only company to submit a Tan sample. Spalding submitted Cape referred to as "Special".

An interesting point is the fact that I believe Spalding also submitted test jackets for the USN 37J1 test program during the same time...
Olive Capeskin?
