Easy502 Posted May 15, 2011 Author Share #102 Posted May 15, 2011 Hello, here are a few lids recently acquired.... A few empty boxes like this one were found a few weeks ago in an attic in Sainte-Marie-du-Mont. This medical pouch was found on the battlefield. And this wonderful medical helmet comes fron Picauville, from a farm where much airborne stuff (mainly identified to 508th PIR) was found many years ago.

I believe those tags contain his home state, blood type, and SN. Just curious is all. Thanks! H Link to post Share on other sites

Its a blessing that after allof these years we can see some fo the stuff our men possessed as it is a part of history. One quick question: have you thought about returning some of the items to family members? I know sometimes that's a possibility and other times its not. Thanks HH Link to post Share on other sites

Easy502 Posted October 20, 2012 Author Share #125 Posted October 20, 2012 Hello, thanks for all your messages. I'm sorry but I'm really busy and I don't have many free time to post all my latest finds.... By the way, I purchased this camo helmet a few months ago. It comes from La-Haye-du-Puits area in Normandy, where the 82nd airborne fought in June 1944. This is definitely an airborne helmet, as I know same camo on D-ring helmets. Hope you will enjoy. Will try to post more in future. Cheers, Easy502 www.dday-experience.com Link to post Share on other sites
