Looking for A-14 (or similar) pressure breathing diluter demand regulator

The issue with the U2 pilots was that they were wearing uninflated suits in a cabin pressure way too low. Okay... you're an insider then? Can you please amplify? This isn't a great topic to speculate about. Here are the facts as I know them: The suit is backup for cabin pressure failure, only. Nominal cabin pressure is 29K. Pilot is on 100% ox (from two hours before takeoff). This isn't a hypoxia problem. The inference that can be drawn is that neurological DCS is more insidious than most realize. That was the point of linking the article. T8
