I bought this camera lense from a u2 for only 60 dollars from a surplus that bought it from a junkyard.

I recently acquired an M1926 USN inflatable lifebelt that is unfortunately missing the hook/latch. I know it may be a long shot but would anyone have one or a replica perhaps they'd part with. Thank you in advance.

Very sad.  A great person and collector.

Thanks

Dirt Detective- Also nice ore car display.  Now I don't feel so bad for collecting WW1 light rail items. illinigander

Greetings, What do you all think of this one? I dont know anything about it. But it looks like it  was hit with a large round...? Blue Paint looks U.S. Navy... It was on sale on ebay tonight. The liner looks like someone added a new nape strap and new head band? For what its worth... seller states its from WW2 the Pacific and Kamikaze  and not much else in the way of an  explanation, so I dont know? I just think its cool!

That’s cool😁

Wicked helmet!

Thank you for sharing these wonderful photos of Mom on duty.  I feel the cord uniforms were some of the best, however the chain linked cuffs on this era uniform were not universally liked.  If you have other memorabilia or uniforms of her time it would be fun to see them. Cheers, Armygas
