Recently, we purchased a large WWI - WWII - Korean and Vietnam War Collection.  This being the collecting effort of one individual for over 50 years!  Over the course of 2008 we will be listing numerous items on our website and Ebay.  

There will be no exhaustive list that would be impossible.  Broad categories range from uniforms and equipment to aviation gear, boots, helmets and helmet parts (naturally!), weapons and medical related, shelter half's, and much more.  Please be respectful and patient. (This means don't hound us!)  As individual pieces and groupings become available they can be found on this web page.  

Items placed on Ebay can be found by clicking HERE.
