robinb Posted February 15, 2012 Share #1 Posted February 15, 2012 Found this last weekend at an antique mall. At first I was just going to leave it since I have a bunch of them already. But once I saw the Chemical Warfare Service emblem on the back, I was taking it home with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Posted February 17, 2012 Share #2 Posted February 17, 2012 very nice indeed! Most collectors dont think further than what a GI wore. There are so many everyday items that a serviceman used or touched that are never considered. A few years ago I came across at at garage sale a couple of oak chairs from a Selective Service office Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UPNATM Posted February 9, 2013 Share #3 Posted February 9, 2013 I just happened upon another chair as well. Not nearly as cool as your chemical Warfare Service marked one, but since this new one is marked, I couldnt leave it behind. Marked HQ DIV TR Oh, and quick question. Does the TR mean training?

Baron3-6 Posted February 10, 2013 Share #4 Posted February 10, 2013 I have one just like it that came out of JQMD and is marked as such. The "TC" on the Chemical chiar might mean "Training Center"...not sure where the Chemical School was during WWII...they were at Fort McClelan, AL before moving to their present home at Fort Leonard Wood.

robinb Posted February 10, 2013 Author Share #5 Posted February 10, 2013 I did a little google research for U-T-C CWS and found that it stands for Unit Training Center at Camp Sibert, Alabama. Camp Sibert was a Chemical Warfare Service training camp. Mystery solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
