Yes

FYI Just purchased one of these "rare" Camillus Navy mark 2s along with the original USN marked leather sheath. I did not realize what it was until after I read this thread. I've  learned to pay attention to what is listed on e-bay, and do some resurch before you buy anything. Militariaforum is one of the most helpful sources  of information I have found. This is my first post on this forum, and I hope you old pros are still watching out there in the collector world 🌎 😀 This one will probably arrive by this Friday or so ( 6/5/26) I will update when it arrives.

Thank you so much for sharing, beautiful battery !

Been trying to find a good "I spy..." pic out of the latest garage/estate sales and have been coming up dry. Here's one in an estate sale company's listing out of my old stomping grounds of Redding, CA. A small lot of "heavy metal".   

Those are absolutely beautiful and would make Hugh Heffner envious!     OD

Good morning Bill   Thanks for your interest 👍   The above posted Cap Badges, Geneva Crosses enclosed in Wreaths are Hospital Steward cap Badge, the top is the 1897 version and the lower two are later variations   You can see the rear screw attachment at the bottom of the top First Version Reference INFO BELOW is taken from  "HISTORY OF THE COMBAT SUPPORT BRANCHES" By LAFRAMBOISE

Thats what my thinking was but the slit formed reminded me of a button hole . 

By the way, jsand, these are often considered to be a type of “trench art”. Also, the motto, “Keep up the Fire”, was from the 1900 Boxer Rebellion, when the unit’s commander uttered those words as he died.

Hello. I am going to be selling these and wanted to know who used them(pilot, paratrooper, etc), and what the market value might be. I have seen some similar online, but not quite identical. I was astoniched at some of the prices. What was most surprising was that even fakes are in the $400 range. Thank you all for your time.

At 3$ you cant go wrong either way. A nice repro leather holster for $3 is a steal. I wouldnt hesitate. However, these are original WW2 holsters. Great score. Leather that was oiled at some point in its history may be darker,  but these look fine. I believe Enger-Kress didnt date the holster one year, I just dont remember which year 42 or 43...or 44? Anyway, both nice originals and at that price, even better than the unissued Enger Kress I found for 15$ at an antique shop! 👍
