      Is anyone familiar with the nwc swimmer booby traps used in Vietnam?

      This is quite similar to yours. My pack is empty as well and I'm okay with that.     I'm not sure what your other harness is. This is a fighter pilot seat setup, yet I still can't make yours out.     Here is an earlier QAC(Quick Attach Chest) harness for bomber crews. Sadly, I don't have the "red" pack for this one.     This is one seat chute you don't want!!!  Can't do anything with it!     Dave

      Just coming across this interesting post. Very odd! It does appear to have a Robert Capa stamp... I'm guessing it was applied mistakenly since this is certainly not one of his known WWII images. What an oddity! Furthermore, it's a bit strange that a reverse image search doesn't come up with many published examples. Just the ones mentioned above. Typically, most circulated WWII press shots will have multiple hits. Best of luck with your research!

      If you post this in the helmet forum, you'll get better eyes. You are in the uniform forum.

      You're going to have to shop around a bit for a place that would want to take them honestly. Historical societies and such are typically overrun with "common" things.   For example, my local WWII "thing", the Milwaukee War Memorial center, has a list of things they want and a list of things they don't need anymore of. Just check and see. The War Memorial center makes exceptions for "gold star" groupings and such from Milwaukee.   Given the Minnesota connection, the Minnesota History center might want it. You can check the Minnesota state historical society as well.
