AKC123 Posted May 19, 2020 Share #1 Posted May 19, 2020 Hello everyone. Iv already been posting here for a couple weeks or so but realized I should post an introduction as well. Just a militaria/military history enthusiast looking to get to know like minded collectors and learn as much as I can. I’m primarily interested in camouflage uniforms from Vietnam to modern day but dabble in other things as well. Happy to be a member. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mapman Posted May 19, 2020 Share #2 Posted May 19, 2020 I'm from Maryland also. My 3 uncles landed with 29th Division on Omaha Beach. My boyscout master was also with the 175th Infantry, (29th). And he was the only enlisted man in WW2 that earned 4 Silver Stars. I have several stories "mostly" about Marylanders on my website: www.ww2dday.com in the Photo-Gallery section. Page 2 tell's about Joe Farinholt earning the 4th and final Silver Star that put him in a hospital for 2 years in Staunton, VA. He blew the tread off a Tiger Tank, and the machine gunner got him as he ran back to his jeep to warn the CP. welcome, Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
