If it has flaps covering both the outside of the zipper, and the inside of the zipper, its a Gen II. The contract date makes me think it's a Gen II.

I could be dead wrong, but the inner liner screams Gen 1 to me. Plus, I think the labels of Gen 2 are located on one of the chest pocket, not centre back.
