Herer are a handful of new additions to the collection, mostly wwii

It threads into an 105mm shell. Any insight appreciated. 

Posted in proper forum also but i wanted to share here also. Dad's is the private purchase with small Chevron on chest and right forearm patch. White cap is dads.   Sons has the shoulder cord on the right but nothing else.  Blue cap is son's.   Dad enlisted in 1918 and son in 43.  More details in the dedicated post.    

Son's....nothing other than what you see.

Dad's ..tiny Chevron pin on chest....patch on right forearm that's unknown to me.

I had one of these suits sealed but opened it within the past year it has a reflective patch for identification in nighttime environments as well. They came in 2 patterns 3 color Desert and 3 woodland. Unlike other chemical protective suits these are actually relatively fire proof according to the NSN Data

Really nice set....I love NILO groupings!!

This is a request for anyone with items from Edgewood Arsenal, Maryland during its early years 1918 through 1929ish.   I'm looking for badges and newsletters/yearbooks mostly but anything else specific to the arsenal would be great. I'm presenting a historical perspective of the arsenal during its early years locally and wanted to see if I flush out more photos or artifacts to enrich the presentation.   Thanks in advance, RP Steve
