Top Fuel Posted February 8, 2021 Share #1 Posted February 8, 2021 I consider myself a (hobbyist/amateur) collector of US military historical items, stories and their caretaker. My interest / passion spans the times from US-Mexican War to Vietnam. Items of interest cover patches, insignias, medals, knives, firearms, uniforms, field gear, photos and stories. Most of the time, some story or item of US military history captures my attention and then the hunt is on. I then try to identify, research, authenticate and purchase items to help tell that story and group them together. Currently, I volunteer at the Planes of Fame Air Museum in Chino, CA, working with a team in the restoration project of restoring their B-17 bomber.

sundance Posted February 9, 2021 Share #2 Posted February 9, 2021 Welcome from the other side of the country (NY). I have a son in LA and I've always wanted to get to your museum when visiting but have yet to make it. We're all historical item nuts around here so you're in good company.
