Looks like a great salty example! That blue stripe is commonly associated with US Naval landing forces for amphibious assaults. -

We will sometimes salvage pocket, tags, and the material that is saveable, for repairs and for backing in Rikker mounts. -

. Hi Kevin, Next time you see or have contact with Andy and Cynthia ask them to relate about the time we took several Jeeps out to the country for the day, while Andy and Cynthia were away having a romantic stroll together we stood a lot of foliage in front of their Jeep completely hiding it without moving it, we watched from a distance and oh how we laughed . . . . . . It's a story they have also often related to their family, friends and others . !!!! Norman D. Landing, Forum Normandy Correspondent, June 27 2O25. …. -

Not sure of the exact date on this set, but I wore the all Yellow PT suit in the Army back in the 80s.. It looks like it may be 2001??? By this time though the Army was already wearing the Army Black and Gold and in some cases still the Black and Grey (National Guard units and Reserve units that had a later wear out date).. In the 80s the yellow PT suit was known as the famous (or infamous) "Banana Suit" since the top and bottom were all yellow, and the t-shirt was a reversable black and yellow shirt, (actually two 2 shirts sewn together) and they were actually quite heavy. The purpose of this was to have opposing teams for sports (black shirts vs yellow shirts). We could not do the "shirts vs skins" or no tops. I also recall when these were washed they shrunk and the sweat pants and tops would look like hi-waders as they came up mid calf and mid arm. Leigh -

Unfortunately an unnamed ratty WW1 jacket has no value as stripped WW1 jackets in good condition have little value but a Heer jacket in ratty condition does. -

I am of the leather impressing camp. Printing die would be flat, not dimensional. And they don't have the heft or detail to be hobs. -

. Hahahhaaa Kevin, it was £1,200 for the tank so £500 pounds cheaper than the new Escort ( with ten years life max ), and looking at it another way whatever you did with £1,200 back then, choices of women and wine, a new escort, ( since scrapped ), or banked it, ( financial depression several times ) a tank for £1,200 that would now be worth £250,000, no other investment other than the tank would have given you such a profit margin . . . . . . . . . . Let me know where I can buy a Sherman for £11,000 ( in Today's money ) 🤣 🤣 Presently a UK militaria business is offering a single smaller road wheel off an M3 Stuart for £450, methinks I did ' exceedingly well ', paraphrasing Mr Kipling !!!!
