Asaitic Fleet, Shanghai Gift Box RADM James K. Davis


Recommended Posts

Here is a box made from wood taken from the USS Chateau Thierry when she was reconditioned for the navy in 1941. The box was given to The ship's Captain James K. Davis. There is part of a Destroyer trophy awarded to Davis as Captain of the USS Barker, Shanghai China in 1932 attached to the top.

Robin, I bought many of the pieces at auction then asked the auctioneer to contact the seller and ask if they had anything else. They did and I was able to buy the box and miniatures..http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/99270-rear-admiral-james-kepler-davis-us-navy/?hl=davis link to original post
