BUZZ RICKSON'S BR79758 S/S POST EXCHANGE T-SHIRT MOSQUITO CLUB Short Sleeve T-Shirt Military Marilyn Monroe

This T-shirt is inspired by those sold at base PX stores in the good old days, made with 18-count single yarn.

The yarn is twisted to create a slight unevenness, and a dry texture is achieved by using a plain knitting machine that produces firmness and body.

The length is carefully designed to be perfect when worn under a flight jacket.

The 6147th Tactical Control Group, which played an active role in the Korean War, was nicknamed "Mosquitoes" because their unpredictable appearances were compared to mosquitoes.

In February 1954, actress Marilyn Monroe visited the Mosquito unit stationed at an airbase in Korea during her honeymoon to Japan.

The lyrics of Monroe's hit song, "I Wanna Be Loved by You," are printed on the back.
