A magnificent and historically significant collector's set: Original Korean War M-1951 Fishtail Parka. This set is exceptional because all components are US Marine Corps issued, and the liner features the rare stencil "C. W. Bn.". This stands for Cold Weather Battalion, the specialized unit formed in 1951 at Pickel Meadows to train Marines for the freezing conditions of Korea (Chosin Reservoir campaign).
The Hood: Dated 1951, "U.S. Marine Corp." stamped, real fur ruff.
The Liner: Wool pile, stamped "U.S. Marine Corps Depot of Supplies" and "C. W. Bn."
The Shell: Heavy cotton sateen, heavy-duty brass zipper. Condition is remarkably good. Size Medium.
A vintage shoulder sleeve insignia for the 503rd Parachute Infantry Regiment (503rd PIR), featuring their famous moniker "THE ROCK" earning during the WWII jump on Corregidor. Based on the construction (Merrowed Edge) and materials (Cotton threads that do not glow under UV light), this patch dates to the Post-War era (1950s or 1960s). It is typically found on reunion jackets or occupation-era uniforms.

A guaranteed original World War II era shoulder sleeve insignia for the 17th Airborne Division ("Golden Talon"). This is a two-piece set featuring the division patch and the separate AIRBORNE tab, which is historically correct for the era.

A multi-layered piece of Pacific Theater history: US Navy M1 Helmet featuring a rare Schlueter shell (marked with "S"). The exterior displays a distinct black and "chemical yellow" camouflage pattern often associated with Iwo Jima. The authenticity is confirmed by the visible "ghosting" where the chinstrap masked the paint during application. The Firestone liner reveals a dual life: originally painted Red for Damage/Fire Control, then repurposed as White for MP/Shore Patrol duty.
The definitive helmet of the early Second World War: The US M1917A1, famously known as the "Kelly Helmet".
