Hi all!

Recently picked up this group from vets nephew on eBay. His uncle was a pre-war member of the 145th IR 2nd BN HQ Company and served as a lineman. He made all of the 37th ID major campaigns, and earned a BSM as a member of a litter bearer team during the fighting in Tacloban during the Leyte Campaign. The photo album was a big surprise, and contains some awesome shots, many originals along some period souvenir/ press release photos. 
 

 Hope you all enjoy!

Great group, love the placement of the BS ribbon.

Thanks!! The nephew has a few Japanese items( trainer rifle, two bayonets and a simple flag) but wants hang on to them. Families don’t make sense to me at all sometimes lol

A really solid one Ben, glad you were able to pick it up, not an easy division to find and such a nice grouping.

Awesome grouping! I love groups like this that have a bit of everything. I love it even more because PFC Szolnoky and I have the same birthday 😊
