Oh yeah, since a Duster crew is being depicted, there are some things that I have learned about uniforms and equipment of Duster crews. Depending on what Corps area they were located in depended on what type of flak jacket they may have been issued. For the units that were stationed in I Corps, many of the crew members were issued the Marine flak jacket since most of their support was provided to the Marines.
Thanks for that info James. After reading your post I went back and took a look at my collection of Duster photos. Sure enough, I found a photo with a crewman wearing a Marine flak jacket.
