The B-15 was introduced as a replacement for the B-10 in 1944. It was used through the late 40's by U.S. Air Force pilots and air crews for ultimate protection against cold temperatures. It featured a tab to hold the pilot's oxygen mask as well as a second one to keep headset wires in place. Alpha started making reproductions of the B-15 bombers in 1993 and still produces them to B-15D specifications including the nylon version.

Tomorrow, 10/17, is the anniversary of Alpha Industries. In December 1959, just two months after its founding, Alpha was awarded its own @DeptofDefense contracts and soon began production of the N-3B parka and the Navy shipboard shirt. Here are archival images that share a taste of Alpha's history.
