Buzz Ricksons take on The M65 Parka:
“The M- 65 parka is the successor model of the M-51 parka. Although it is sometimes confused with the M-65 field jacket, they are entirely different. While the M-51 parka had thick satin outer material, the M-65 parka adopted the light and durable cottonnylon oxford weave. Its advantage was that it dried fast even if it became wet from activities in wetlands. Also, the M-51 parka had a hood that was attached to the body, while the M-65 parka has a detachable hood. Like the M-51 parka, the M-65 parka has also a big slit, known as “fishtail” on lower back. The slit enables the drawstring from the hems on the front and back to be tied beneath the thigh to trap warm air.”
