That bottom picture has been posted more times than that of the raising of the flag on Mount Suribachi

C'mon now! I used it in Who What Wear thread where the question was "What famous island is in the right upper corner" (Mare Island) At some point in my long-haul trukkin' mid 70's, I owned a long-gone denim jacket that was referred to as a ''trucker jacket' ($69.99): I had gone sleeper-team driving and was, in fact, the 'boss' ie: lead driver. Claude Akins from the the short-lived '74-'76 trucking show: Movin' On was undoubtedly my sartorial inspiration

When I was a teen there was a revival of what we called a Harrington Jacket. Everybody had one - girls too. They were characterised by a tartan lining and were always zip-ups. Popular with "mods" in the summer when they weren't wearing "Parkas" on their scooters
