"I understand your decision to block my profile and delete a post that received 100,000 views in a single day. As someone who approached this community with respect for the history of the USAF and humility towards the liberators of my city, I would have expected at least a brief statement of the reasons for this step. If the problem was the technical description of the unique artifact from Wright-Patterson or my imperfect English, I am sorry that the space for professional discussion was replaced by silence. If you had told me at the outset that I was touching on matters related to national security, I would have immediately withdrawn the post myself. Unfortunately, all I received from you was a dishonorable recommendation to sell it on eBay for 25 USD. I hereby consider our debate closed and I am already handing over the entire matter, including documentation, to be resolved at the official international level.  With respect and regards, Radim Kurc Pelikán

Thanks for the great information.  It’s definitely confusing but making more sense with the replies.   

Wonderful piece, it’s a shame the artwork has faded. Good luck, and I hope you find out it’s whereabouts!

. Hi Kevin,    nice Jeeping images, however I feel quite sad and nostalgic seeing this image, and we sadly will never know the background story to the image and the numerous signatures added to the image.   Purely peeing in the wind with this association,  notice the nick-name ' Rikki ' added towards the bottom, quite an unusual nick-name in the English language I believe,  and that name and  the drawing of the Jeep makes me think of the early post war London Jeep dealers Metamet and there was a ' Mr Rikki '  or maybe ( Mr Ricky ) connected with that company            Norman D.

Well, I know how that sort of thing feels, so I am sorry. Next time....

They were designed so guys could open them up and send as a post card. 

. Hi JMadison,   I had a set of these back in my collecting days but I sold them about twenty years ago , mine was more heavily washed and used than this set you have,  which has to be the best set I have ever seen.  Congratulations on finding such a nice set and sharing with the forum.     regards lewis. 

Oh nice. I collect camp crowder items. This is one of my match boxes.

Will save you some time:   https://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/420475-authentic-usmc-ww1-helmet/   Was nice that the other member didn’t clip out the auction logo.
