You could try a Whitepages search of the State you bought the jacket.

Well Brad Morris must still be alive if he's jacket made it to a thrift store. You'd just have to do a people search to find him. There would be hundreds of thousands in the army back in the 60's and 70's so most of the guys who wore those jackets did nothing special just like with my old Air Force stuff from 1999-2003. It has no meaning to me and will end up in a thrift store someday.

Hopefully there were some patches on the jacket that are EXTREMELY beneficial in researching military clothing. They can tell you about the rank and unit(s),,, ,etc.

Good Luck

FYI: Also, unfortunately I have found military clothing because the person that wore it had passed, so be prepared.

Check the registry at Arlingtion National Cemetary online, you can even do a national ph# search at www.switchboard.com

Good luck.
