stealthytyler Posted November 19, 2017 Share #1 Posted November 19, 2017 Here is an awesome upper pack that is named to a sailor that served in C Company, 5th Medical Bn, 5th Mar Div on Iwo Jima. He passed away in 1946 only months after being discharged. Below is all the research I have managed to do so far. Thanks for looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve1987 Posted November 21, 2017 Share #12 Posted November 21, 2017 Neat. He added a US on the pack, must have been inspired by the more common Army packs. Cheers, -Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stony Posted December 2, 2017 Share #16 Posted December 2, 2017 He was 44 while at Iwo? Was he a front line medic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stealthytyler Posted December 2, 2017 Author Share #17 Posted December 2, 2017 I don't think he was a corpsman. He was part of the medical team that setup a field hospital on the beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
