CW4AFB Posted October 24, 2017 Share #26 Posted October 24, 2017 Good stuff, and thanks for the additional period photos, and the other coat and shirt, I just thought you had the IKE jacket. Now of course questions on the IKE, curious insignia, ie the discharge badge, and the major ranks??? It came out of the family that way---I'm thinking this was a post-war/post career "wear to functions" uniform---he had served in the 29thID in WW2 as enlisted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patches Posted July 13, 2018 Share #29 Posted July 13, 2018 Found two more 50s RCT patch sightings from The National Guardsman magazines of 1956. The 158th RCT, here I believe it's men of the FA Bn, RCT's consist of the Inf Regt itself, an FA Bn and an Eng Co. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
