Lawguns Posted April 4, 2017 Share #1 Posted April 4, 2017 I thought I would just start one thread and update it with different pictures as I find them. I found this medal in a box that was buried under other items in one of the stand up display cases. I also posted it in the what's it worth forum. http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/287723-uss-brooklyn-medal/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawguns Posted April 5, 2017 Author Share #7 Posted April 5, 2017 Yes, from what I can tell online they would be for the 30/40 Krag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doyler Posted April 5, 2017 Share #8 Posted April 5, 2017 Looks like the McKeever pouch both 45-70 and 30-40 Krag types were used.There are 3 patterns as I recall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
