Not really a gun-related item but I found these while going through a box of my Military clothing and thought someone here may want them. New - never worn Flight Suit. This is the same as the current issue flight suit. Size - 46 L 100% Aramid (kevlar) Flame Resistant Is aramid the same as Kevlar? Some people ask about the difference between aramid and Kevlar. The answer is, no difference exists. Kevlar® is the trademarked brand name for the aramid fiber made by DuPont™. However, due to it being the first para-aramid developed, its name is synonymous with the term aramid These are very comfortable, easy to move in and are highly fire resistant. $50.00 + $10 shipping

that's misleading. however company and fiber names can be interchanged, flight suits are not bullet resistant.

I don't know how you got the idea that I was implying it to be bullet proof, that is a leap that you made. If you read this link you may understand that kevlar and aramid are the same - my post was informational since many folks do not realize that they are the same basic material. - https://www.mcrsafety.com/blog/aramiddrover
