U.S. Army and/or Airforce "Mae West" Life Preserver i.e. Life Jacket 1943 - Nice Used Condition

This is a clear used example of an U.S. Army "Mae West" Life Preserver or so-called Pneumatic Life Vest.
The Vest is clearly makers marked Hodgman Rubber Company and dated December 1943.
The vest is in clear used condition with all straps being in place, yet one of the tubes being displaced. Overall this "Mae West" retains a very attractive patina. Can be upgraded, yet a wartime example!
