Early full back inflatable.... ,watch the un-usual color...,I've no idea about that.., would think reddish/brown ,but don't know actualy..

I didn't think of blue in the first place ,but now you mention ,I think they had blue flightsuits and caps too.. I once saw some training pics and all had the dark color rather than tan..
This tough pilot has put some clips on all straps of the vest ,for quicker dress-undress reasons maybe ?
Will post some vests too later..
