bn1961 Posted October 12, 2007 Share #1 Posted October 12, 2007 I picked this up about 17 years ago. He was one of the 2 Easy Company 506th pathfinders. Shot down on D-day in the channel. Picked up by the HMS Tartar. Thought I would share this with others who could appreciate it. Yes, it is all the real thing. Brit made DI's, CIB, and ribbons, French made patches. This is my first posting here so I hope I am doing it all correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bn1961 Posted October 12, 2007 Author Share #4 Posted October 12, 2007 This box of stuff came with it. Along with a bunch of other items. He never did get the Silver Star but the ribbon was with his things. Most of the wings are English made also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
