Love the 82nd jacket. Take the patch off of that 6th armoured division jacket and turn it upside down and you will have another 9th armoured division uniform 😂😂
What a great amount of items. You know I get so excited when you post videos because it’s amazing to see the type of militaría that you have access to. Ww2 is much more difficult to find here, and is priced as such. Still, great content, and keep up the great work.
Thanks Mike. I am very excited to have this opportunity. I can't wait to go back again hopefully soon. There is a variety of cool stuff to look at and buy.
Amazing pickups JonBoy! These are some fantastic items. I really like the Nambu pistol and the German flags. Both are at the top of my list to get someday. Congratulations on adding them to your collection. Great pieces all around. Very cool uniforms. The items in this video are really impressive. I enjoyed watching this a lot. Keep up the good work. Can’t wait to see what else you pick up from your collector buddy. Thanks for sharing and keeping history alive. God bless. 🇺🇸🪖🇺🇸🪖🇺🇸
for the handee talkee the scr 536 refers to the entire kit of accessories. by itself its known as a bc-611 and is very popular with collectors. shouldnt be too hard to find a TM11-235 tech manual for it. heres a list of components. BX-48 box for spare crystals and tubes (5 sets) BX-49 box for spare crystals and tubes (24 sets) BG-162 bag for batteries (BA-37, BA-38) CH-146 chest for equipment CH-233 chest for spare tubes, crystals, (400 items) CS-144 parachute case CS-156 canvas case CH-312 case for IE-37 tuning unit that tajmahal piece is big enough to be considered a tapestry! from what i understand the M under the eagle stood for MARINE for kreigsmarine. that shirt with the 82nd tunic looks british made. great bunch of uniforms!
That 82nd Airborne Division uniform is awesome! I was a paratrooper for 20 years and did a combat jump into Panama. I collect Airborne and Ranger items specifically. Great piece brother and I love your whole collection.
Thank you for your service. I have been collecting about 16 - 17 years. I never thought I would have ever had a massive collection. Lol. It has been a fun journey.
first, the german battle flag with the stripes, the eagle over M markingr on the white says this is a Kreigsmarine (naval) battle flag. nice nambu and bayonets for sure. 82nd uniform is nice and interesting. thanks for sharing
A little bit of the Goof off pro strength will take the paint of that phone if you ever remove it id try it. I used it on a helmet i bought that been spray painted black and when I removed it i found i had a fixed bale M.P. helmet. Very nice find. I love the nambu pistol
Thank you. This is a great hobby. I am thankful to be part of the collecting community. Remember that it takes time and money to grow a collection. Remember to have fun. Thanks for watching.
Robert Moody Williams B: TN Dec.13, 1924 Field Artillery Occupation Japan 47-49, 674th FA Bn 49-50, made 1 st Lt 1950, DDS UTN 54, MSOrth 1955, Prof Ortho Practice 1956, Lived in Jackson TN... Been there twice... Try the above information... Don't change the color of the Radio... I believe there's a reason that the radio is that color and it maybe tied to Vietnam
Sorry... Class of 1946 / 15714... I have a 1991 West Point Book... Try Village Radio Program Vietnam... That Radio could be the model of the beginning of the program
Hello John. I know you really like the Armored Division. Have you ever read “Spearhead” by Adam Makos? When I read that book I felt like I was in the tank with them. Makos is one of my favorite authors, and probably my favorite book by him is “A Higher Call.” Check him out.
WOW! That's really something. I have an 82nd AB officer's jackets along with undershirt that belonged to a veteran who turned out to be a Major later in his career. Sadly the 82nd Jacket & shirt have been stripped of everything on them, but I do have a picture of the person wearing the uniform. I also have a tailored 1st Armored Chief Warrant Officer's uniform with lining like yours. Stay cool, and hello from Texas!
