This inflatable vest was intended to be worn by workers on a boat or ship, in case they fell into the water.  I'm guessing that it was military, based on the color.  I translated some of the words on the labels.  The language is Norwegian.  There is no reference to the Navy or Air Force.  The production date code is 1973.  I'm selling it as a collector's item, but it seems to be in working order.  It also looks like it was never actually used.  It is in excellent condition.  The CO2 inflator mechanism has no oxidation.  I have not figured out exactly how it should be set up for use.  The cartridges (2) are unused.  There is an oral inflator tube on the other side, which I forgot to photograph.  It is also in mint condition.  The vest material is soft.  No evidence of dry rot, cracking or leaking.  There is a little blue paint on the upper left front section of the vest (see photos) and one small paint spot on the back right.
