This jacket was owned by Lt. Col. (later Brig. Gen.) Robert W. Waltz, of the 390th Bomb Group. Each bomb represents a mission flown and each swastika is an enemy aircraft shot down. The flour sack and POW symbols are for Operation Chowhound and POW evacuation missions at the end of WWII. Courtesy of the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum.
