Tennessee Posted January 22, 2018 Share #8 Posted January 22, 2018 Great 33rd Div. group! I really enjoy id'd groups like this with the painted helmet, etc. They aren't as commonly seen now- did you get this one from an estate? Keep sharing as you get the photo process down! Thanks for showing this! David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raidercollector Posted January 27, 2018 Share #13 Posted January 27, 2018 Nick Man does not live by marines alone but they will always come first. Mark Mark , I use to do the same. But it got out of hand for me. I collected every thing ww1 and ww2. in medals and uniforms. I had 140 medal grouping's at one time. I liked it all. But my house was full of stuff, And started to for get what I had,LOL. Even collected bayonets and helmets. Well I have toned down now.LOl, Mostly uniforms and Marine valor and PH medals.

mes Posted January 27, 2018 Author Share #14 Posted January 27, 2018 Nick It gets really difficult to decide what to collect because it is all cool I started out collecting ww1 and that led to ww1 marines and then ww2 and then ww2 Marines I try not to get to interested in Vietnam I can only afford so many wars Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
