louie Posted August 10, 2009 #1 Posted August 10, 2009 I have little by little started going through duffle bags that have been in the garage for many moons and start to inventory stuff. These are some of the things in the first bag that are airborne. The Airborne Command guy had 5 overseas bars and one enlistment stripe, and all insignia was there ex. for his right sleeve PFC stripe which was ripped off w/ half left on jacket!

JSOCSFC Posted August 10, 2009 #21 Posted August 10, 2009 Very, Very nice!! I love the Airborne Command. I love the Mars Task force. I love the 11th Abn/503rd I love....well, you get the Idea:D I cannot believe what you were able to pull out of rag mills!! I have gotten a few good things (got a 13 star duck hunter pattern unif once, and the odd Korean war-VN and current stuff) but nowhere near the quality or historical siqnifigance as your pieces!! I love when they used para-cord to "trim" the SSI back then. Please post more!
