Just the direct opposite the WWII KIT is far more difficult to find thus more expensive.   R.E.

Holy crap! That’s an Awsome find! Did you find it in Irvine? And where?

400-800 would be my guesstimate. Cool find, good for displays or you war room!

I mean its possible but doesn't it resemble any badge I have seen from them. I was told that it could be a Ww1 Pioneer Infantry regiment but I am not sure. Also their symbol isn't 2 axes. It 1 axe and one 1 mallet.

Woodsmen of the World (WOW) badge?

Now thats both true and funny.

I just found this Korean era Camo parachute, made by Atlantic Parachute Corporation in April 1952. The canopy is intact, and all the paracords are present, but unfortunately, no harness is present.   Any idea of the value of this parachute?  Thank you very much Yannis

been looking at lots of pic of WW2 and post war HBT being used well into the later 1950s.  Seems common that WW2 chevrons were being used once the 1948 mini-chevrons went away. pretty sure all I have seen are the OD on Blue variety.  Has anyone seen the Silver on OD ones used on these HBTs or was that type disused post war.  Being subdued does not seem to be a consideration with full color SSI and white name tags. thoughts?
