Well yes, I have no love for this current version of the 7th ID.  It was reborn during the GWOT only as a Div level command unit to deploy and provide a DivHQ  for various BDE and lower units to fall under in Iraq.  It then became a garrison command at Lewis due to the GO rank structure.  After we returned from Afghan 11-12 the 7th had all 3 then 2 (after casing the colors of 4th SBCT) fall under the 7th for C2 of units at Lewis.  Finally they just reassigned the maneuver units of the 2nd ID to the 7th now leaving 2ID in Korea with just rotational units and 2nd SUS Bde under them organically.  No, not a fan of their growth at the expense of 2ID which, unlike the 7th, has had continual active service since 1917 in the USArmy.

Ok peeps... Let's keep this thread alive. IT IS yard sale season and I know you're seeing stuff in the rough! Post those pics showing that "nugget" in the clutter. We love to live vicariously through others.

Great spot Johan! I guess the Jeep could be a good 2 years old..

That is fantastic! Thank you for finding this! It really was a mystery until you found this! That driver is still very trusting!! Cheers

You don’t need black light photos.  It’s an original vintage patch.   what is “a really low price”? 

Value anyone?

Ouch!  🤤😮😁

That is fantastic work!   OD

More info on R-14 vs ANB-H-1 and their use..  as stated the -1s replaced the R-14 in AAF helmets and headsets    the aircraft utilized an adapter for the -1’s , the MC-385 adapter used to go from high impedance(-1) to low impedance (-14) I take it the AAF aircraft were set up for low impedance and Navy used high…   midwarish the US adopted the high impedance for radio use.. thus the need to adapt the new ANB-H-1 to the aircraft   soooo looking at what era you are replicating would dictate which receiver to use… Early to mid war, and most likely into 44, the R-14 would be acceptable   

Thank you all for your kind feedback, I appreciate it.
