U.S. Navy sailor mans a .30 caliber machine gun on a utility boat cruising in the Rung Sat Special Zone, Republic of Vietnam, during Operation "Jackstay", 26 April 1966.
Vietnam war era USN used shipboard grey M1 helmet with WWII era liner mfg by CAPAC , also on display WWII US Navy Battle Lantern as used aboard ships & submarines, and US M1911A1 .45 automatic pistol with a phosphate parkerized finish & brown bakelite grips.
That's a really cool and clever display. Deserves a few more loves.
Agreed with fortapache....this needs more attention, thanks for stiring memories
