These A2 Summer Leather Jackets took on the life of canvas for artists in WWII. Each jacket and its art tell a unique story. John started this project in 2014; now, a fantastic book is being published in 2022 about the jackets, art, and some of the boys that wore them. Slemp's website for the project is www.WWIIBomberBoys.com. He talks about the project with host Jim Fausone.
