COOL, glad I am not the only one!!! I got alot of stuff. I wish I still had the pics on a computer. I had a corner of my office that looked like a vietnam bunker. Five 81mm mortar crates that have never been aged! About 10 sand bags filled with shipping peanuts!!! Had my belts of ammo and my de-milled M60 at the ready.

Maddawg, It used to be cheaper...................dam ebay!

Here is a trick for you! When I filled my sandbags with shipping peanuts, I would also throw in a very large magnet and then tie off the bag. Then you can throw them on the floor of the truck or the hood or fenders for parades and not have them fall off. A good magnet is good for about 20 mph!

Me too. Cheaper than collecting WWII stuff! :)
I ran out of WW2 GI stuff to collect :lol:

Now I look for German uniforms and equipment, but dang the mad money that stuff brings.
You interested in a Origional Nazi party arm band and a mothers medal without the ribbon. Would consider trades for VN stuff.

Probably pass on that, but thanks for the offer. I mainly want to focus on straight Army uniforms/weapons/equipment for right now.

If anyone has a knack for using any of this stuff. There's a great event in Jackson every summer. We're trying to get the 113s back out for this one, so we'll see.

I would love to do an event like that but I am not infantry! Now convoy commander :D :driver:
We're working on getting a convoy event setup. Where this event is done is easily on enough property to have one. There's plenty of logging roads winding around we could burn off plenty of fuel and ammo.
