Just found this OLD posting and wanted to add some more to this Group, I have been collecting as much of this Group as i can afford for some years now and just recently reunited his Chinese Bullion Wings with his Metal Chinese wings. Anyway since i am starting to redo the displays I figured I would post some additional items that were part of this Group originally and I don't think were ever posted  I will start with his B.S.A Sash and some Beverly Hills H.S. posters his BSA Sash looks to be 1934 as best i can determine from the award clues   BTW The EAGLE SCOUT MEDAL is not his original but is the same year style that he would have been awarded. In 1934 the Eagle Scout criteria was 21 badges, that must include a specific 13 awards to be eligible. There is an additional 5 to be eligible for the LIFE SCOUT that is also required for EAGLE SCOUT. I contacted the BSA and after some research they told me he was awarded an Eagle scout medal. Sadly, it is not available so i included the filler for reference

There should be a tag in the end bunting where the leather pulls are, you have to really get in there to see it and no this is not a Vietnam flag

Today in the US, we observe Memorial Day in honor of our fallen service men and women. Though most people use it as an excuse for BBQ get-togethers without much regard for the actual meaning of the day off.  Here is my humble tribute to our soldiers, sailors and airmen who did not make it back home. 

Welp found what the train stands for. Railway Security still curious with the monster LOL right, doesn't look like he's defending it waving it over his head LOL   Unit was big time in Germany during the Post War and Cold War a lot of years, so this UA DI is more then likely German.     1944 to 1948 then 1955 to 1993 https://www.usarmygermany.com/Sont.htm?https&&&www.usarmygermany.com/Units/MilitaryPolice/USAREUR_385thMPBn.htm

Absolutely.  Two-tone, light grey parkerizing (slide vs frame) and that slide stop are definitive late War details.  Very nice!

Their bodies are buried in peace; but their name liveth for evermore. Ecclesiasticus 44:14   Not for fame or reward, not for place or for rank, not lured by ambition or goaded by necessity, but in simple obedience to duty as they understood it. They suffered all, sacrificed all, dared all, and died. Anon.   Poor is the nation that has no heroes, but poorer still is the nation that having heroes, fails to remember and honor them. Marcus Tullius Cicero   Romans 10:9–10   A civilian cemetery about 2 miles from my house understands Memorial Day as well as any.  Hundreds if not a thousand Old Glories on either side of every road through the cemetery and the same number of small white religious markers for every departed soul there that served.    The last pic is the iconic Camp Pendleton sign on Interstate 5 northbound,  pritnear San Onofre, that's been there for more than 50 years, taken last Friday.      God bless America and our fallen warriors.          

The above crest will be an unauthorized one obviously probably WWII or occupation period, the occupation period being the height of the adoption of unit crest designs by units that during the war after they were formed did not have a unit crest of their own authorized , if we can see the rear of it to really tell.   Here's the duly authorized one for the 385th Military Police Battalion approved in  September 1955.

another. Looks to be Japanese made   

THe ones for water were different on the old metal cans I recall. THey had a different locking cap that sealed and were painted white on th einside. Also had a W mark on them where the fuel had a G and a screw cap.         

Wild unit crest there LOL, wondering what the correlation is with MPs with a a monster, like what an ugly giant, standing in flames holding aloft a train; like he's going to destroy it LOL   Motto vincit qui primum gerit by the way translates The one who wears it first wins., question of course is wears what, what the train is going to be worn around the giants neck like a necklace LOL
