Bump, I can add some more photos if they are needed. Also, if it is real, what would one in this condition reasonably go for these days? Any help would be greatly appreciated, Madeline

This one is a little fuzzy but you can see the little dots under the stitching.

Hello, I picked this up the other day and I wanted to see what the consensus was on it. I have checked it under a blacklight, and nothing glowed. It has been opened, and no longer has the original contents but it is rubberized from the interior. I don't have much into it, I figured the potential upside was worth the potential $15 loss. I don't typically collect airborne stuff so I'd really appreciate some opinions. Thanks, Madeline. More pictures to come...

Description: Buy now and have it heading your way today. Fresh estate find. I found this in a tool box. There are no markings on it other than "US M3 1942".

Blade had some light surface rust on one side towards the tip. It wiped off with some Hoppes. It did however leave a rough patch behind. I didn't try and remove it since I was concerned about the finish. Perhaps you have a way to make it look better. O

Sorry for the confusion, they belonged to two different women, the first uniform belonged to Bertha Glick, the second is completely unknown.

I recently purchased two ANC uniforms, one of which was directly from the grandson of the vet. He provided a good bit of background information on her and was nice enough to throw in a photo of her in uniform that happened to have her ASN written on the back. I know a number of records were burned in the fire however I've found absolutely nothing on her. Her name was Bertha Glick from the Bronx and according to her son she first enlisted sometime around 1942 and served as a truck driver for the WACs then later joined the ANC with her her sister. She served in europe late war with the nurse cor
