I was very excited when I opened this box this morning.

This is an Iraqi POW uniform, that was worn by Americans they captured.

Also included is a image of USAF Capt. William Andrews, wearing a similar set.

Great pick-up Bob! Gives a whole new spin to the "Story of Old Yeller Pants!" :lol:

Cool, I think that's the first time I've ever seen one.

GREAT set, Bob. Your set is the second one I've seen. The other set is in my personal collection.

Arch, does yours have PW on both sides of the chest? All the images I have found only show it on one side...

 

Allen your right but I don't think this persons story would be as funny as old yeller pants.....

Without digging it out, I think mine only has the one PW on the chest. Incredibly rare set, Bob. Congratulations.
