Bellumbill Posted September 20, 2018 Share #1 Posted September 20, 2018 Just hoping someone on here was the winner! I would love to see some pics of the stuff when displayed. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Outstanding-WW2-442nd-Regt-Combat-Team-T-Sgt-uniform-group-IDd-/392119210242?nordt=true&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.m43663.l44720 Best, Bill K.

Tonomachi Posted September 20, 2018 Share #2 Posted September 20, 2018 I would too as I tried for this uniform but didn't even come close. While trying to confirm that this was a legitimate uniform and not a put together piece I found his obituary which mentioned the Silver Star he earned while fighting in France and Italy. It looks like per his enlistment records that he changed his first name to George once he was in the Army. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

z19 Posted September 22, 2018 Share #9 Posted September 22, 2018 Anybody here know the seller? These uniforms may be as good as gold but remember this, there's probably 500 good Airborne groups for every one 442!! Seller also recently sold a 29th / 116th as well with nothing but a jacket, another RARE bird!! Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill, remember this as I learned it a long time ago. Sometimes the best deals one makes are the deals they don't make. Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's an honest fellow. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
