Other Periods and Miscellaneous Items
US Army Vietnam Combat Helmet
A very good, complete example showing honest wear and aging and looks to have been together for awhile. Has a 1970 dated camo cover and 1966 liner. Includes the sweat back (72 or 74 dated) and elastic cover band. The helmet chinstrap shows some wear and minor fraying and the steel has a some dings on the crown which I would expect from a helmet that was issued and worn. All original and in overall very good condition. $129.00Original Filipino Bolo and Jungle Survival Training Patch and 1 Piso Coins
An original bolo that was traded out of one of the negritos natives who taught the jungle survival course at Subic Bay. This knife isn't one of the cheap souvenirs but an actual tool used in the jungles. The blade is most likely an old car spring with a carabao horn handle and wooden scabbard. The patch is an unauthorized jacket patch that could be purchased in town from a tailor or vendor. The coins are all dated 1972. Just a neat little grouping. SoldUS Army Vietnam Sun, Wind and Dust Goggles, 1969 Dated
Not the typical 1974 dated post-war goggles that you often see but these actually looked to be the old 1944 style goggles with no foam rubber cushion. One side of the rubber is marked US and the other has the date '69. I don't see many of these. Complete with box and clear lense. The lenses have some remnants of adhesive but overall in very good to excellent condition. $45.00US Navy Korean War Summer Flight Suit
Issued condition and showing wear and stains but not abused or damaged. All the CONMAR zippers work fine. Great flight suit for your Korean War or early Vietnam Navy carrier pilot display. $45.00US Army Korean War Steel Helmet and Winter Pile Cap
Excellent example of the US Army helmet issued to the Korean War. There is some debate as to whether these made it into combat, but this was these were the updated helmets that replaced the WW2 m1s. Has the green painted T1 chinstrap clip, fine silicon finish, 1951/52 dated CAPAC liner, Korean war pile cap and 1951 dated can opener. Nice set and not often seen complete like this. This came untrouched out of a garage at an estate sale. $225.00US Army Vietnam Modified Duffle Bag, 1969
This is an interesting Army duffle bag that was nicely modified to make it narrower no doubt for a piece of gear or a tent. Was done by someone who could use a sewing machine and not sloppily hand sewn. Marked on the front with the soldier's last name and "Vietnam". The writing has correct age and wasn't slapped on there yesterday. $35.00US Army Vietnam Hot Weather Cap, 1972 dated
Nice example dated 1972. Size 7 1/4. $35.00Vietnam War Era Rand McNally Official Map of Vietnam
Very good condition with no damage. Unfolds to 3' x 4 1/2" feet. Statistics still indicated the North is Communist and the South a Republic. Includes Laos and Combodia. Good reference. $20.00Beautiful US Navy Submarine USS CHARR SS-328 Jacket Patch and Embroidered on Silk Souvenir
CHARR was launched in 1944 and made 3 war patrols in the Pacific as well as participated in the Korean War. She was redesignated AGSS 328 in 1966 and decomissioned in 1969. The 5 1/2" patch is Japanese made as is the silk (number one submarine) souvenir and I believe date from the Korean War period. The embroidery is applied directly to the silk and the CHARR insignia is essential another 5 1/2" patch. The lower edge ribbon has come loose from the silk but otherwise is in very good condition. A beautiful submarine set. $200.00Vietnam Era US Navy Corpsman Badge
As worn on field uniforms of Navy corpsman serving with the Marine Corps. Used condition but still very good. $15.00US Army M-1950 Field Jacket, Regular Small
This field jacket was worn for only a short period of time during the Korean War and is quite hard to find. Very nice condition and complete with all tags. Dated 1949. $75.00East German (I think) Makarov Holster and Belt Rig
S
Issued but very good condition. Has some stamped markings on both the belt and the holster but I can't make them out. $40.00Korean War Era USMC Corporal's Forest Green Wool Coat
