Sorry...I missed that.  Thanks

Impressive medic and man. I’m glad you could find all his SS and BS G.O.s

I just found out that my uncle was in the Air Force his name is VERONA DELMAR HENRY born Dec 5th 1939 died Dec 14th 1993 I know he was awarded a soilders medal in Germany in 1960 and his grave says he was in vietnam any help would be greatly appreciated.

You might want to give the dimensions/measurements of the box, such as diameter and height.

Hello,   I dug this one out of storage the last time I was in town and had never attempted to do any research until about a month ago.  I had believed this to be a put together uniform for the longest time, but to my surprise the medals were not added to push up the price.  This belonged to William T. S m i t h a Texas native (where I found the uniform too).  He was assigned to the 317th Infantry regiment of the 80th Infantry Division and was one hell of a medic.  He was decorated 4 times for going above and beyond in his duties and even saving a battalion commander on one occasion.   Fascinating to see a theater-made shoulder insignia that's actually embroidered on German uniform wool.  I used to collect German uniform items, so after a while you get an eye for it.   I'll let the General Orders for his awards do the talking for me.  

Yeah, I just got it in yesterday. After inspecting it in hand its definitely a really good reproduction, possibly a movie prop as a friend of mine told me. Thank you for the opinion!

Hi from France Keystone !! I 'am early gear web "addict" (among others ) , and have juste discovered your post, and ............haaaaaarg , gulp ,you are very lucky guy, congratulation . Have never seen before a real pre manufacture canteen cover . Impossible to fine to day . Mutch tanks for sharing .   Have nice day.

Yes

Now to the goodies,   It looks like his uniform was issued a few times to different soldiers before it got to him.  With the help of this forum, I now know that he was issued an earlier pattern of 10th mountain "barrel" path and must have added an Italian-made Mountain tab some time before shipping home.  Interesting to note that the tab is an "error" patch as the bottom half of the M and N are missing.     His WWII issue Bronze Star is included, but not engraved.  The others look to be replacements made in the 1970's:     And finally, his souvenirs.  the top half of the insignia are all uniform removed (possibly giving credence to the story above).  The second half are all unused, possibly taken after the Germans surrendered and the souvenir market opened up to GIs
