Nice grouping. I ran into a similar situation a little more than a year ago when I contacted a lady who was selling her fathers and grandfathers uniform grouping. It was heart breaking for her to part with but she just didn't have anywhere to put them and her children at no interest at all. Which was unusual because her son is in the army.

I have all of them going back to my great-grandfather items from ww1 .

Good man.
I am glad you pick-up this great collection.too often they end up in the trash because the family just does not want them.

She had his bronze star but that had been sold before I got there.

Interesting grouping based on the first army tab he must have been a recruiter for some time. The first army tab was worn by recruiter in the 1950s. Really great group I really love the paper work and the constabulary papers
