Marion;

I thought I would send you this e-mail I just received from a soldier in Germany.

We met at a reunion,(note the RED BULL patch). His name is Kyle Darlene Thomas.

Rocky

Hope you like it. He is trying to send me a pair of WWII combat boots!!!!

Please note: forwarded message attached

Roque,

I went with a group of Belgian WWII re-enactors this weekend. We laid wreaths at a B-24 crash site in Sart St-Laurent, Belgium and at the memorial to the first American cemetery in Belgium. The picture of us marching is us doing the flag raising ceremony at the Ardennes American Cemetery. I am the one in the middle with the flag. What an awesome experience to be able to raise our flag to memorialize all who sacrificed for our freedom. The other two are of me. Hope you enjoy these pictures. I apologize for the size of them. I like to take good quality pictures.

Take care,

Kyle

Marion's note: I have resized the photos for our forum.

This is one of two old caps I picked up at the antique flea market yesterday. I don't recognise the metal eagle insignia on it. If you do, please let me know what branch of service it is.

Many thanks!

Jim

I thought I would a thread just on uniforms that are your favorite. Or maybe you have a photo of a terrific specimen from a musuem---maybe Patton's own outfit. If you are an expert on combat uniforms and gear, please post a photo with details of each item.

Tunic-- 15th Air Force NCO - Gunner

After talking to a Veteran who flew 50 missions as a tail gunner, I bought this 4-button tunic

just "as-is"but missing the wings. I added the Gunner wings and a patch for the 15AF(which flew out of Italy).

Details: 4-botton enlistedman's tunic with Army Air Corps collar insignia.

Gunner Wings - depicts a bullet on it. A bomb signified a Bombadier.

Ribbons include the Air Medal with oak leaves, and campaign ribbons. Right pocket is the Distinguished Unit Citation ribbon.

RH Sleeve has 6 bullion overseas stripes and one re-enlistment stripe.

[in the background is a shirt with the TRUST Forces patch]
