vicjoy1945 Posted February 24, 2010 Share #26 Posted February 24, 2010 Vic and John Thanks for looking. Still hope to add a Raider or para marine group in the future to the collection RON Hey Ron ! My pleasure ! I've got a couple of Marine Raider groupings but still looking for a that elusive paramarine group !! There's been several fantastic paramarine groupings on the boards lately too !

doyler Posted February 24, 2010 Author Share #29 Posted February 24, 2010 Great grouping Ron - with all this neat ephemera, will make for a superb display! s/f Darrell Thanks Darrell, I really should send off for his records.Loyd kept a lot of paper items.When this was purchased at auction by the previous owner the 3rd unit history was with the group.The owner sold that a few years ago.If I recall he had to dig through several different boxes at the auction to find and keep together.I dont think Loyd had been married or had any children/relatives.so everthing was sold but no trace of uniforms according to my friend who bought this group originally. \ RD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdk014 Posted February 24, 2010 Share #30 Posted February 24, 2010 Ron, very very cool stuff. This is one of the best things I have seen on this site for a while! Are you going to make your way down to K.C. for any of the shows coming up? Let me know next time you come to Des Moines, you had great stories at the gun show.

tthen Posted February 19, 2020 Share #46 Posted February 19, 2020 Nice Ron, first time I've seen this post. What is the deal with the pocket flag? I found one of those not to long ago and wonder what they were besides a small flag with no way to fly it. Thanks Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
