I'm getting old and I can't remember.

I was in the Corps 1967-1971.

Were we issued a field jacket to wear with fatigues? Did it have the AMU and ROTC patches on it?

I know we contract cadets spent some weekends in the winter doing the occasional FTX out in the boondocks. Surely we had field jackets? I have images in my mind of us standing together, shoulders hunched against the cold, with field jackets on, but who knows.

Anyone remember?

Confirmed.

Class of '65 here. Yes, we were issued field jackets, but not the liners, so they didn't help much in the occasional really cold weather. I'm pretty sure we had the A&M and ROTC patches on them.
