    For sale - Cadet raincoat

    Bought this when I started skirmishing 10 years ago.

    Size 46. I was told it came from the Citadel because of the unique buttons. Includes a nylon storage/travel case, not original to the coat.

    100% nylon with plastic liner which has separated and disappeared in a lot of places. I coated it with Camp Dry to get it to repel water but quite frankly it acts more like a sponge than a shield. I finally gave up and bought a rubberized canvas raincoat last year.

    With that said, the first "I'll take it" can get it for $30 cash.

    Delivery at the Fort after Tuesday next week.

    Your silence speaks volumes. Into the trash it goes.

    And good riddance.

    Couldn't in all conscience charge you for something I was going to pitch. It's yours, Bruce.

    I'll drop it off on one of my sojourns to Sutler's Row.
