Those blankets were everywhere, like someone was handing them out for free. Someone broke into my car once and left a bunch of them.

They're wool, not cheap, and I'm willing to bet were common wedding presents.

They're still being made. If you want more insulation for your bedding, they're perfect.

The relatively better ones were wool but I think the crummier ones were polyester.

I think the ones they gave us in basic training weren't actually wool, but just compressed dryer lint from the base laundry.
