Thanks Kurt.  I'm glad you enjoyed them.  I have more but that's all I have pics of at the moment.

Fleet Logistics Support Squadron 52

Here's a really cool piece I picked up a while back. A Japanese Arisaka bayonet captured and modified into a fighting knife by Cpl Clifton Walter Gonce in WW2. Cpl Gonce served as a Field Artillery Crewman (603), the WW2 equivalent of our modernday 0811 Canonneer, with George Battery 3rd Battalion 11th Marines (G/3/11) and Headquarters & Service Battery 5th Battalion 11th Marines (H&S/5/11). Cpl Gonce embodied the saying "Marine Canonneers are a jack of all trades" being qualified in multiple military specialties: FldArtyMech (913), AutoEquipOpr (929), and Dispatcher, motor vehicle (410). Cpl Gonce fought with G/3/11 during the Battle Of Guadalcanal and with H&S/5/11 during the Battle Of Cape Gloucester. While fighting on Cape Gloucester Cpl Gonce was awarded the Navy and Marine Corps Medal, the highest non-combat decoration awarded for heroism by the Navy and Marine Corps, for cutting his way into a wrecked plane and rescuing the injured and deceased aircrewmen then transporting them to a field hospital. Cpl Gonce was discharged from the Marine Corps in September 1945 and moved back to his hometown of Baltimore Maryland where he served and retired as a Patrolman and Detective from the Baltimore City Police Department. He enjoyed fishing and crabbing which is what I believe he used this fighting knife for, as it looks to have seen several years of use and the holster it came with appears to be a civilian KABAR fillet knife sheath. He passed away June 16th, 2020 and was laid to rest in his hometown of Baltimore, Maryland. A full write up of his Marine Corps service can be read on my instagram post about this piece if interested: https://www.instagram.com/p/DW9r_rNEVvG/?igsh=cjdyeXdvZjh4dTh4

What unit is this for, not a ship I should think, maybe some kind of Shore Unit, tab from the 60s-70s I think.

Pictures?

Was wondering what are these for?

Fortunately they are using the same worn out sayings/slogans as well.
