Great find

Very interesting. I quit selling most Militaria on eBay a while ago. The last time I did, a year ago, I had two people try to lowball me on an offer and ignored it. Then I had them run the bids up into the last 24 hours then both write me to to cancel their bids, this I was charged for Ending the item because of the BS. I only have tried to sell twice In two years and won’t do it again on eBay. Just use to buy.

If you are part of SOCOM you wear a maroon beret unless you were were a long tabbed (then green) or if you had ever been assigned to RGR RGT, then you wear that beret

Around 2016. Oval has had it for a long time.

He is In the Support Unit.

Here are the only ones that I have left; The rest were cut up into a quilt for my middle child theater made CIBs, Ghost 1st Cav Div patches under 4th ID, and accompanying respective combat patches. Got when I came home worn all of my second deployment. we were not allowed to wear boonies unless they were cut down; which you see.

Goes for Marines Also. NDAA 2012 (I believe) did this for both services. WWII and Korean Marines were given the CAR retroactively.

This might be one of the neatest groupings that I have seen in a private collection. Very. Cool.

Copper I would bet Aleutians

Very cool. My grandpa served as a Ground Defense Machine Gunner in this squadron. I have a lot from this Squadron including a patched Bomber Jacket as well as a bunch of stuff from my Grandpa.

Great collection. I love collecting ribbon bars. That is how I first started collecting US stuff outside of family unit stuff. I always like the US ribbon bars with foreign awards on them. I have a few, but I would like to eventually find a USAAF bar with a British DFC; have yet to score one of those. A second one that I wanted was a USMC bar or bars with European awards on it from WWII.

Very awesome

Welcome

Super cool

I just spoke with a member on this forum that I am personal friends with and he informed me that not all of the items on his uniforms are authentic. He had sold some 506th items that were not authentic
