Corpsman Up!

Hi all,

 

I got a nice score at my local thrift store (the same that had the vintage Marine Corps shirt and pants for 4.98); I found an autographed copy of 'Corpsman Up!' by Charlie 'Doc' Rose. I am already halfway through it, and it is a pretty good autobiographical account of his experiences in Vietnam. It was an even better read at only 48 cents! I almost got a nice hardcover of Doctor Zhivago too, but I discovered it was missing two pages, and skipped it.

 

They also had a nice chocolate chip camo jacket and vest, unnamed, but they were tiny (I mean *tiny*), and I passed on them too. At this point, if it is not in my size, or at least close, it's a no go. They turn over their stock pretty readily so something in my size will come along.

 

Take care,

 

-Daniel

The chocolate chip vest you mentioned is probably the desert camo cover for the woodland pattern ballistic vest.

Are these rare or hard to come by? I would think not given it is practically new, but then again, I am new to this hobby (relatively speaking).
