BOB - Thanks for mentioning the plane that might possibly have come from. I was wondering what fabric covered plane would have been flying then. Probably more than I would guess. Great item. Thanks for posting.

That is a great piece of USMC history and nice research as well. I imagine your mailbox is full.

That is really cool. Any Navy Cross recipients, not sure if the 5th Tank had any?

 

I checked one list that shows three including one to Capt. Edward C Nelson Jr. of C Co. But I think this was signed only by enlisted men.
