General, hope you and your mates can find some good acquisitions in that auction.  You won't have to pay for any shipping and no tariff.  Good hunting!

Thank you for posting this female grouping.  I am always interested in the accessory items such as purse, gloves, personal bits, they really add to the presentation of the uniform.  It would be fun to know her connection to the USMC uniforms and thus why she was USMC Aux.  Cheers, Armygas

I believe this should answer your question regarding what unit Robert E Wales was in the Korean War. Note:  Per his obituary, he grew up in Jackson Summit, PA.  In the newspaper article it shows him being of Millerton, PA.  Millerton, PA is 5 miles away from Jackson Summit, PA so I'm about 99.9% sure this is your guy.                  Ancestry - Robert Eugene Wales.pdf Class Photo - Robert E Wales.pdf

Warren Oates with a real deal helmet, Cpl Stripes there, who knows maybe original to it and not done for the movie, movie being the 1971 T.V. movie The Reluctant Heros

Hi, I was doing some research on these post-WWII wool pants I picked up as part of a lot of clothing. Can someone help me to better understand them? I think they are 1948 dated US Army M-1945 Wool Field Trousers in 18 oz. Shade OD-33, and made in Frankfurt am Main in Germany.    Am I correct? Are these desirable for military collectors? I'm looking to sell them to buy something else that I collect more. 

I was issued this desert camo set along with 3 sets of DBDU (Chocolate Chips) for deployment on Bright Star 1987, Jordan and Egypt.  The temperature difference between day time and night made this outfit a welcome piece of kit.  Wore the parka quite a bit the trousers only on guard mount or to the shower point.  I still have them as part of my desert camo collection.  Cheers Armygas 

Ahhh...the beloved "suicide doors".   OD

The example you've showed is atonishing, no damage at all and the name was completely unveiled!   Nice job!

. Hi aerial bridge,   Thanks,  this is about twenty miles from my house, I can't think of anyone looking for a Jeep presently, but on the same auction there is a Nash 600 car for sale I have forwarded this onto a friend that has started to consider buying a staff car.        Norman D.
