FG-26 Army Air Forces kit bag

No date and markings are a bit cloudy in places. Marked as follows: Suit-Pneumatic Anti- (could say Gravity?), Specification NO M-323?-A(?), Size-Small Short, Stock NO. 8300-858475, Order(?) NO. W33-????-??7744, The Berger Bros. Co., Property U.S. Army Air Forces. Single zippered compartment with TALON on zipper tab and the material resembles the herringbone twill common in the 1940s – 50s. Front has Arm y Air Forces and the winged star in circle all printed in white. Cotton duck piping is tattered in places and one carry strap is almost cut completely. The US Air Force was established independent of the US Army in 1947 leading me to believe this item dates to before that time. Could this be pre-jet era and then restenciled for g-suits when jets entered service? $5.00...
