I was told navy type 3 ?

The war is still going. Its not over until the enemy is finished. We are having a discussion in the military history section, about a chapter in the book of military history that has not finished being written. Its not over yet... Captain Obvious I know....   Cheers!

Just finished this one, 22nd Ordnance Company.    

There was a Lieutenant Colonel Craven assigned to DC in 1940, unfortunately for this uniform he was a dentist. That's all I can find. https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=mdp.39015035099707&seq=1412&q1=craven

I have a mess kit spoon (on the left) that we keep in our kitchen drawer, plus a “tactically acquired” spoon I “borrowed” from a mess hall in Vietnam and converted into a spork. I always take it with me on travel. The plastic spoon on the right is just one you get with a takeout meal:  

Very interesting and a great piece of history! Thanks for sharing it and providing the background 👍

Thanks, jmd62. Here’s a WWII era YWCA armband:     The YWCA was one of the core members of the USO and also worked extensively with Japanese-American girls in the relocation camps.

Sorry about the sideways picture. Still not sure how I go about getting it to be straight. 

Can anyone post a pic of a 1943 M.A.co canteen? I have a cup but I have never seen a 43 M.A.co canteen. That is my favorite year to collect and I believe the only 43 metal canteens I don't have is the 43 GP&F three piece stainless, and the 43 M.A.co aluminium. I have seen the GP&F once in awhile for sale but have yet to snag one. I have all four aluminum horizontal weld canteens for that year but the 43 M.A.co search has been ongoing forever it seems. These are most all my 1943 manufacturers. The pic is a few years old so it might be missing one.
