Mine was dated 1944 and in perfect shape. The rubber was very suple and the only thinkg I did to get it ready for use was to hose it off and air it out for a few days. There was an area where a previous owner''s name was marked out, but since the USMC reused everything this just adds to the authenticity of my impression.

Smooooooth Easy Deal!Poncho is in excellent condition, like new, although, it was not an unissued poncho as stated. It had the Marine's name on it. It is still worth the money I paid as it's in as close to new as can be for the age. I'm totally satisfied in my purchase! Again, worth every penny! The price charged beats all others for this quality item!! The shipping was excellent as well! As I noticed how far it was shipped from. I had it with in days of my purchase! Also excellent contact from you at WPG. Thanks for everything! I'll be a returning customer!
