I learned something new to me. In season 1 episode 1 "Forgotten Front"  Morrow's cover is a cut parachute, not a USMC cover.

Thanks for this great post!  It should be pinned.   What red-blooded American boy in the 60s didn't watch Combat?   From the 1980s to the early 2000s,  going up to the "Wine Country" was a favorite weekend trip, particularly Russian River area and what back then was more off the beaten tourist path of Napa.     The Hop Kiln tasting room back then used to have a few photos of the Hollywood productions filmed there, including Combat.   Sadly, that winery was sold in 2003, about the time I stopped going to "Wine Country".  Nothing good lasts forever.   

 

In fact, here's the whole episode filmed at Hop Kiln in 1966 or 67,  "Olly Joe",   one of my favorites.

I agree on the tree, but that is the correct location

Great thread. This show started me in collecting.   My dream was to get a German helmet.  Couldn’t afford the $25 they were always priced at back in the mid 1960’s.  Luckily my uncle gave me one he brought back.  
First thing I ever bought for my collection was a metal AAF helmet with ear flaps.  Saw it in the window of a NYC used electronics store.  Was either 50 cents or 75 cents.  I still have it.  But, the back has the residue and loss of flocking where I put an 8 inch strip of white first aid tape.   I wanted my helmet to look like Lt Hanley’s helmet with the white leadership stripe.

The tree is also on the different side of the road.
