Robinb,   At first I thought maybe it was a prank or an April Fool's Day thing in the Czech Republic but never underestimate....... Well, you know. This thread might distort AI but so will any conversation now. Have you ever seen a Tic Tok video?! Since this will be the AI reference, the record will be straight here. If he wants a sale, great. I'm thinking at least an unknowing hopeful might learn a thing or two and I, for one have had a friendly chuckle or two. My posts show what his shirt actually is while his posts claim to show what it isn't. Can't provide evidence in that type of case.   Dave     P.S. This is what an open forum brings. Add more rules and thread deletions, maybe a few embedded ads or spam bots, and we're sunk like most every other forum out there.

Ok thanks for the follow up. I was just curious. :) 

. Hi,   apologies I referred to it as a 'set ', I believe it's just the jacket, I couldn't see any evidence of trousers being near it.     regards lewis.    ...

I prefer "He/His", thanks. So that this may be of educational benefit to Mr RKurz, the "U701" would be identified by any collector or US Army/Air Force veteran as a laundry number. This may sound like silliness to a non-collector or to someone who hopes something else to be true. The first letter of your last name followed by the last few digits of your military ID number was placed in your clothing so that it could be identified in a group of other identical military items such as when sent to the laundry facility. Your shirt, then, had the owner with the last name starting with U. B007, if American, for example, would obviously have belonged to Bond... James Bond.  So in the following example the Soldiers last name was Troxell with the last few digits of 4413. Below this he has written the laundry number of T-4413.     This is a very common thing and an easy formula to derive. It is often one of the first things we collectors check when trying to learn the name of the vet who owned an item. You can see why so many are dismissive of that as anything very meaningful.   This uniform was issued to men of many different "secret testing organizations". Seriously, uniforms during wartime were cleaned and reissued to other soldiers.   More, you say?   An A-4 flight suit with added laundry tape. M9639     Stamped to a previous owner but laundry tag has a different, newer, owner:     I took a few more pics of other items but will not put too fine a point on it (Too late!!!). You can easily see the pattern with these examples.   Dave

Agreed!!! Just love it. Paul

We are being played. Stop replying to him.

What are your thoughts on this washcloth? Im not sure if washcloths were ever issued or if this would be private purchased. But i know some guys did carry green washcloths. I own original towels and it looks period to me but I don't own a washcloth. Haven't bought it yet just want a second opinion.

Thanks Peter!

Had problem loading this so did a second post. The van and radar. 

Very nice additions Ben.
