      Don't know if you used the search function , top right corner.   Tough one to figure out Japanese or Taiwanese made used or issued?   Maybe this might help?   Phill

      . hi Bluehawk,   The US and Britain shipped a lot of the early model war-aid Jeeps to Russia as they were no longer required after the US standardised the Willys MB and the Ford GPW as the standard vehicles.   However both of these models were also shipped as Russia was in desperate need for these vehicles, Russia concentrated on tank production to combat the German invasion and the eventual large scale tank battle at Kursk.    If you google ' US Jeeps used in Russian May Day parades ' then lots of photos and sites come up about the Jeeps in Russia     Norman D. Landing, Forum Normandy Correspondent, 01 July  2O26.   (  and another half a year gone )   ..

      Out thrifting today and picked up a mess of pre 1959 chevrons and hash marks / service stripes. My question is, what is the difference in the size? I mean, I thought they were usually big and long and should appear to practically wrap around the lower sleeve. These are smaller. Where and when would they have been worn? I don't think they are for female Marine uniform.

      It's from the AN/TRC-2 radio TM from April 1944.

      Thanks so much for all that... I just recently learned we'd sent USSR some of our Jeeps at one point or another (from the new Tom Hanks WWII television series) when they needed some help back when. I wonder if any of them are still rolling along in Ivan's care...

      SWEET!!!! Great score! Finding out whose it is would be icing on the cake. I hope it is eventually ID'ed.
