Update.  I pulled the photo out of the frame and look.   I thought this was pretty cool.

Appreciate it! If interested, pm me and once I get copies of the memoirs made I can send one off to ya! 

Thanks Kurt! That is lost unfortunately . The family still had a picture of it , but his uniform and PH got lost out of storage. The other brother became ill and the storage fees weren’t paid on time. Nobodys fault at all, just unlucky! I keep my eye out for it . very pumped they had what they did!

Amazing grouping, that para knife is amazing and the account is one of the best I’ve read.

Here is another photo in my grandfathers things  of his brother Willam Ritchie Wilson  

A very nice artifact.  These came in pairs, the one you have and the other is the 442nd distinctive insignia, the go for broke DI with the Mississippi steamboat.  They are made of plaster of Paris and were made in Pisa, Italy.  They are very fragile, so be careful.  I had a few of them, but sold them at the Bob Chatt show in Pomona, California.  I have one set left.  Will be posting my 442nd and Nisei WW2 item later thanks, Mark Susuki aka dmsusuki a few attachments hope you like them

Awesome!!! Love the PH!!   Kurt

Absolutely! Just want to share Gus story to anyone willing to read it. There’s much more to it!

18 year old helmet that looks like it was painted a month ago and not used.

Steve, I will assume you have reached out to the MVPA, if not that would be a place to start.  Also the National MVPA convention is in Virginia this year, getting a table there may generate some interest and contacts.  Cheers Armygas
