MinorInHistory Posted June 12, 2021 Share #1 Posted June 12, 2021 Hello everyone! This weekend, I went to three sales where I bought items. I’m very excited about these finds, and I hope you all enjoy them too! Sale 1: Collapsible water bucket (1942), Vietnam era flashlight Sale 2: WWII women’s army dress uniform, women’s M43 field jacket, man’s wool shirt, M1944 goggles, WWII helmet liner The uniforms above belonged to a husband and wife who both served together in the Philippines. Sale 3: Vietnam(?) sun pith helmet Thanks for looking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsalberry92 Posted August 1, 2021 Share #11 Posted August 1, 2021 I'm a web gear nerd, so I was drawn to the bucket. Interesting to find one maker marked on the side-usually they are on the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
