I do have these goggles also, probably for infantry but they look pretty good.  Would a throat mic go with this setup? Going back to militaria show this morning and a guy has one in box he's holding for me.

Hi Guys,               Thanks very much for your quick response and expertise. I had my doubts as you can tell so in one way great to know that the fakery antennae still works and fortunately it made me suspicious enough not to put out any money. Thanks again. My Regards, Norm.

Hi Ken   thanks and nice find!   Obviously an early/slat gearbox is different from the standard one (filler plug on the passenger side), I have a standard box now that I'll just leave in.    I worked some more on the jeep again yesterday, no pics as there weren't any big visual changes other than another small section has been cleaned. When all the crud & mud is off I can prep for painting, the biggest problem is where to put all the loose stuff that is now stacked on the back of the frame, under a tarp 🤭       The good news is the steering box that I filled with oil last week after making a new gasket has no trace of leaking, so I drained it again before putting it away because at some point it WILL tip over and these boxes don't have an oil seal at the bottom of the steering column. Maybe I should put one in, it's a mod I have seen done before.

No cartouche, but the boxed RMC is on both the stock and handguard. 

Nice "gray" nugget in a lot currently on the 'bay.

You did an excellent job on the figures, Manny! They look awesome. Really looking forward to seeing them united with the gun and the platform. Great work!   Lars

That's some good stuff.  I see several WW2 units that were short-lived or never left the US. Those can be difficult to track the history on those. The 757th trained guards, policed, and watched POW's at Camp George West, CO. The unit never left the US, but several still got "overseas service" and ribbons, as teams were organized and sent to North Africa to collect POW's, and escort them back to Geo. West. The 772nd cadre was trained at the LAPD Academy, and sent to guard the massive Boeing plants in Washington. The DUI was unofficial, until approved in 1951. 

Where did you get all of this info? Wow :(    These are standard AN6530 goggles with dual cushion vs single cushion. Used by both: NAVY and AAF flyers with ALL types of helmets during the war.  For A-11 they will work as well...      

Well you sort of have the 322nd, but you also have the 744th MP Bn. The 744th trained at Ft. Sam Houston, but saw service at Ft. Lewis and Hanford, WA. (Yes; The Hanford site that made "heavy water"). It had it's companies deactivated over 1944-1945, but the Bn. HQ somehow ended up deploying to the Pacific, got battle credits for Leyte and Luzon, and was deactivated in Japan in 1946. It was reflagged as the 322nd MP Bn. (OR) in Wilkes-Barre, PA from 1947-1952. In 1953, it was again redesignated the 744th (on paper), even though it would not see reactivation until 1991. (Moved to Bethlehem, PA, keeping the lineage, but changing to a different DUI.)    I was never sure of the 391st DUI, as I could never find a 391st MP being active or any MP unit having that motto or DUI.
