B24AT6 Posted May 4, 2016 Share #2 Posted May 4, 2016 First off congrats to your son! Is he graduating from FGCU? There are some places around the Naples area, the most well known of which is Homer Helter's Militaria. His shop is really hit or miss, with a ton of fakes or common items overpriced. You can however find some gems in there that they don't know what they have or that they have misidentified, but you have to be careful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth the stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
