My great great grandfather was in the 91st and was a runner, when he was done messaging the letter to the captain, the captain said “ look down” and he looked at his clothes and they were in shreds! Later on he said that god protected him that day. He received the legion of honor at age 102 but everything from the war that he had was stolen. Long live the 91st!!

I like the 80's suspenders and the Viet nam era pistol belt çombo.

Please learn how to fold your shelter halves.

Thank you so much for sharing this - watching from UK: my Nan served in the ATS when she was young, nice to learn more about the uniform. We have a superstition here about a lucky penny so maybe that's why the lady who wore that uniform saved it 😊.

Found this exact same bag in my grandpa's closet, he fought in the war and kept a lot of stuff from it, definitely gonna use it.

Tengo una son geniales

Nice M51 wool shirt from Korean war, I own one & have the 1st Cav. Div. Original WW2 on mine. I also have the pants to match. You also need the WW2 HBTs & an M43 & M41 jacket.

I still have my father’s shoulder patches and his garrison cap’s parachute/glider patch, along with his dog tags, his Combat Infantry Badge, and his medals in a frame.

My father was in the 17th Airborne and sustained permanent, disabling injuries in the Battle if the Bulge. As a little boy, he always told me that he’d won the War, all by himself. To me, he was bigger than Superman.

You mean your great grand uncle, given Your age. Nice collection

Wrong grille for a wartime Jeep...I think that's a CJ grille.

Great bro

38R is my size. Real nice!

Get rid of that Alice compass pouch

Classy garb for classy brave men

Hi my friend, I’m looking for this tent. Where do you live? What is the price in your contry of this tent please ?

Enjoyed this, thanks

Jeep *

I wanna see this keep finished bro !

The propeller wings are just signifying hes an officer in the air corps. Just like how an infantry officer would have the US and cross rifles. There is a small problem, his ribbon is flipped (good conduct should be on the left) and as a matter of fact its interesting he has a good conduct ribbon. The medal was only given to enlisted men, and this guy is evidentially an officer. Some guys enlisted and got good conducts then became officers, but the fact hes a captain which requires a few years of service and that hes got a good conduct which I think requires three years as an enlisted man seems odd.

Is...is the camera following your head movements??

You got the cold weather trousers and shirt, and the tropical boonie cap, why must you make me suffer in this way

If you were a collector you may be interested in some of the ik jackets that I have

LINSEED OIL

Great video do you know if the size marked on it 38R would be like a MEDIUM?

Mine does not have the G.S.W D P & H stamps on it but it clearly says ARP on the front and does not have a date on it.

Enjoyed your video, best to practise setting up the pup tent a few times. I can set mine up completely in 11 minutes. Best to keep your head and face well away to the left when hammering the tent pegs/ground stays into the ground, never directly in front of you. Just a bit of advice from England. Take care, all the best.

Why not turn the bag upside down to empty it?, only asking.

But it have post war front grill

Thank God no drill instructors were present during the making of this video

This is satire, right?

One of my great great uncle's served in WW1, from Washington, I wonder if he was in 91st? From what I hear he got shot up in the legs, and pulled a body over himself so the Germans wouldn't find him

Nice uniform and a nice memento of your great uncle. Officers had to pay for their uniforms and a lot of them that were stationed in England during the war had them custom made and tailored.

If you can find another single shelter half it makes a great ground cloth. It fits almost perfectly inside the tent. That would save your sleeping bag from moisture. I have the exact setup myself

Search TH-cam for don't set up your shelter half before you watch this. It show a WHOLE lot easier and quicker way to set your tent up. It's really shorter and more efficient

Ruptured Duck patch

Awesome setup. I just got one of these but sadly, one side is missing. So I'm going lean-to for a bit.

Good job, I just found this. I like that it details a bit of your great uncles service. Currently I am the head of the New England branch of the Airmens' Preservation Society of Washington D.C. and am one of the WW2 Reenactors who works in and around D.C. for the Army, Air Force, Marines and Navy at reunions, museums and the National Memorial Day Parade in D.C.. I also do shows representing the USAAF at Duxford flying Legends, RAF Duxford in England. The uniform is a US Army Air Forces Class A Tunic, Cover (Cap), Trousers in Army regulation officers green gaberdine. He was a Pilot and the shield on the 3" Wings specifies that. The patch on the arm is early to later war general Air Forces. The Duck is a "ruptured duck" that was given on his decommission. He was in the ETO and this dark green is an overseas uniform. Stateside he would wear Tan or White formal. They would often wear these uniforms out at night to town or in formal settings. Sometimes around base if high enough rank. It has nice Collar devices and the Cover is also Gaberdine and leather. It is a "Crusher" which was because it could be crushed and pocketed while inside without damage. Covers are not worn inside except on a flightline or special occasion. The under belt button was a metal saving attempt. We needed all the metals we could get back then for ammunition and building things. His picture does appear to be very early in his training, it is probably a cadet uniform as those collar devices are usually enlisted or cadet. I too am from New Hampshire and fly out of Nashua, Concord and Manchester. Look us up on the APS website or on Facebook if interested in "representing".

VERY NICE UNIFORM GROUPING, AND A VERY GOOD PRESENTATION. I'M ALWAYS SO GLAD TO SEE YOUNGER GUYS THAT HAVE THE SAME INTEREST AND RESPECT FOR THESE MEN AND ITEMS AS I DID WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE.

It's not a 1944 Ford Jeep. It is post war.

THE TAN/GREY STRIP OF THIN FELT LIKE MATERIAL PADDED THE METAL EDGE OF THE LINER. IT WAS MADE OF WOOL. IT WAS NEVER MADE OF ASBESTOS. YOU MAY BE THINKING OF THE U.S. M-1917 HELMET, WHICH DID HAVE AN ASBESTOS PAD UNDER THE FELT AND COTTON CLOTH DOME PAD.

How is the progress on the Jeep now

To open the tool box if you didn't find out yet you push in on the lock as you lift the lid

Really realistic

Just to say I’m not a ww2 reactor but I believe the helmet is a very late war but your lodout looks amazing

A very interesting set of dominos! It’s amazing that they’ve been around for so long and remained relatively complete!

Fantastic thanks for sharing. You can be very proud of him. 👍👍

Also the photo is when he was most likely fresh in the army as an enlisted an due to the sleeve being empty. The left collar disk has the air corps symbol (winged propeller), and the right one has the country’s name, so it says US
