Fantastic Career NCO USAF Grouping, WW2, Korean War - 1960s
Extensive group from the estate of a vet who started his military career in the US Navy during WW2, served numerous years in the US Air Force with the 3rd Air Resuce Squadron during the Korea War and retired as a Senior Master Sergeant with a missile maintence squadron at Malmstrom AFB. Group includes his USAF dress blue uniform with all insignia including his original pinback KW era aircrew wings and original ribbon bar. Comes with his original medals including air medal, WW2 and Korea War campaign medals (all unnamed) his USAF dog tags, 2 USN dog tags (one for him and one for a woman who later became his wife) and misc items. Probably the neatest part are over 100 photos and an original camera that no doubt took many of the photos. There's a couple photos of him and his wife in WW2, but the majority of the photos cover his time with the 3rd Air Rescue Squadron during the Korea War and include aircraft, early helicopters, training of some the the USAF's first para rescue members, barracks life and many of airmen with their Japanese girlfriends. When the airmen weren't flying rescue missions saving downed Air Force and Navy airmen, it looks like they were having a pretty good time. The dress blues are 60s dated. What a group that will need lots of research to get the complete story as no paperwork came with the group. The photos and medals provide some pretty good documentation and a good start for any researcher! $500.00Pair of US Army Vietnam Small Arms Ammunition Pouches
