    Hello, a friend of mine has this item and we are not sure if it was from the Vietnam War or WWII. I would appreciate if someone can let us know more about this. It is complete except for the battery. Thank you in advance (alecova2012 at yahoo)

      Welcome to CW. Cool find..

      The DA should indicate Korean War, but not sure about this one ..more research needed.

      Thank you dav2no1 I will check those links. I saw some on eBay but some say it´s from Vietnam, others say it´s from WWII, others just mention it´s from the 1950s.
