Who knew? All the Jeep Geniuses here of course! 😁 mikie

Great find! I've been researching the 318th as well. My 2nd great grandfather served in Company B. He was gassed during an engagement, survived the war, returned home and in typical North Eastern Pennsylvania fashion returned to the coal mines where his already damaged lungs couldn't handle the coal dust a little later down the road and he passed at only 45 in 1939. Unfortunately I have nothing of him. No photos or anything from family members. Trying to find photos of the regiment and company.

Great shirt! Good find. Fly Army ... 

What an amazing find! Do you have any information on the pilot - logbook, book, articles...? 

Hello, this is an amazing collection. I'm writing about the March 18, 1944, mission in which Magnuson was shot down. Is the picture of the B-17 with "sad sack" from the collection, and is the jacket on display somewhere, or is it part of your collection?  This is great memorabilia.    Jim 

Hey! If you are interested in letting it go I’d be interested! I collect these. I’ll pay good for it

Who knew there were variations in a headlight bracket. The knowledge from all of you never ceases to amaze me.  I assume the "tombstone" and "horseshoe" variations are named because of the shape of the bracket?    ....Kat

Wow- Thank you for the picture.  

Some say "Philippines" on the clip... those are likely slightly later... EK's were supposedly unmarked. I think I have 3 of them that are marked,can't find any other pics at the moment.

This must be the 1965 version of the patch right after VC-6 (Fleet Composite Squadron 6) designation.......we got boat drones, flying drones and tracked drones!!     River Patrol
