I can just see it... "What's this old knife? I think it's a navy knife...it says USN on it..." "Who cares? It's nothin'...throw it away..."

It really wouldn't surprise me....

I know I haven't been on in awhile, but I must say your recent finds have been great! Especially that M1 Carbine and Pith Helmet

Here are some better pics of the USMC pith helmet and USN knife:

Another great find "professor Joe", but you're looking more like "indiana Joe"(nes ) every day ......

Thanks, Dan! I'm just wondering if both are authentic/ WWII vintage!

A WWI vintage U.S. helmet was pulled out of the trash heap within the past few days. It's not in the greatest of shape... stand-by for pictures.

Amazing.........! ( The car is packed - I should arrive in about 3 hours ! )

LOL Thanks, Steve! I was told about the helmet, but not about the US WWI victory medal and TWO New York WWI service medals! Am I correct in assuming that the two ribbon bars are U.S. good conduct and U.S. Presidential Unit Citation?

If anyone is in the area and would like a tour of the facility, just let me know! I can't guarantee that anything will be found when you come... but you never know!

In fact, Josh (Newbie) will be visiting me next month!
