Timberwolf Posted December 8, 2019 Share #1 Posted December 8, 2019 Hi all, Was able to pick this grouping up recently off of ebay. Was being split up, but was able to keep most of it together. Belonged to a Wisconsin native. A nice typical late war set up ike jacket, with a really cool khaki shirt that is tailored to an ike styled garment. Was able to get his paperwork as well, and his personalized souvenir Japanese flag with where he served. Hope you all enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timberwolf Posted December 9, 2019 Author Share #5 Posted December 9, 2019 Thanks guys! I've seen a few various uniforms with the Independence ribbon but not really sure how it got issued to so many who didn't actually qualify for it. Probably the post war confusion with ribbon regs.
