David Wheatley Posted April 22, 2007 Author Share #14 Posted April 22, 2007 Along with the jacket, I also got his dog tags, sunglasses/case, a ribbon bar, a set of wings (look to be post war), a 1941-dated mess kit, a tuning instrument or some kind, his AAC garment bag & 1/2 of a Nazi flag! I do plan on selling this jacket so if you know of any potential buyers out there, please let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
