    I picked up this Lithuanian coat with liner at an auction this weekend.  I've got a set of Lithuanian fatigues from a former 5th SF Group CIF guy, and so I wanted this to go with it.
    I'm not certain if the coat was issued to them or not - either way, it's a cool item.

    Very nice acquisition.

    This is definitely a Lithuanian made field coat, but I'm fairly certain it was issued to Iraqi forces
    (36 Commando ) or US advisers attached to 36 Commando.

    Nice jacket! As ripcord said it looks like the 36th Iraqi Commando pattern.

    Looks like a heavier liner than what came with the US field jackets. (I think the current "term" is "smoker's jacket".) Is that accurate?
