I believe Medium is a 40 Chest... Large would be a 42.
I know the one there is a large.

My cousin has one available. Its size is Large, will fit a Medium no problem. Its real, been fielded, has actual repairs done to it.

Whats your budget for one, your looking at I think $125 if I remember his asking price.

Check out www.mooremilitaria.com for Vietnam era and repro gear.


Also, US Soldiers(Army) didn't really wear flak jackets, maybe those in camps, but not the guys going on patrol. USMC Infantry, etc wore them though.

Ya I know in a hot and wet jungle with humidity all around those who got Flak Jacket was in hell ! But Infantry was supposed to wear them for protection in camp's to protect them from mortar fraggment etc.. I know but thank for the info
