First Post: My 1943 Willys Jeep “Hot Lips” 👄
brad k replied to Panzerheld's topic in MILITARY VEHICLES
nice one, I've got a 44 willys and a hat just like yours too! -
this knife appears to be the one that sold on gunbroker auction about a week and a half ago for $2670.00, you may already know that but thought I would let you know if you didn't.

is it not a well made piece of trench art made from an artillery shell?

hi warguy, I also had some issues with "a prominent dealer in montana" many years ago with a couple of ww1 marine tunics.

My Little Bit of Everything ETO/MTO War ROOMS Collection
brad k replied to Hookemhorns88's topic in DISPLAYS
very nice -
if I was looking at two identical guns, one with capture papers and one without I would want the one with papers but it doesn't add a whole lot of value to me. as far as the radom here I think whatever you think you are losing with no capture papers you are gaining with the grips and you can probably still find out about the vet and who the peaple in the pictures are with the registration papers. I bought a radom about ten years ago so I don't know what they go for now but that one would be a nice one to have.

I never got to fire a live one but had to jump with a training one two times, scary! I hated everything about them.

nice, I bought my first 1911 at a flea market in a paper bag with 7 rounds in the mag.

Early Dark Brown Bag MRE Food Packet Long Range Patrol Date?
brad k replied to mrrm's topic in FIELD & PERSONAL GEAR SECTION
I was in the 82nd abn. and got a few MRE's in grenada for the first time, thought they were pretty good at first but I learned to hate them. -
cleaning with soap and water will raise it, some peaple like to spray oven cleaner on greasy surplus stocks and put them in the dish washer !
-
I believe I talked to a member of the 82nd band at a reunion in the 80's and I'm pretty sure he said they were used as recon troops in combat, I'm not positive so I may be wrong.

50's or 60's jump oval, what unit is it?
brad k replied to brad k's topic in UNKNOWN, CAN YOU IDENTIFY?
the pathfinder idea got me on the right track, I did some google searching and looks like it might be the 145th pathfinder detachment of the 145th aviation bn.
