Good luck Gary. Did my friend have any info for you?

[RH1941]

Yes what a great guy with an incredible amount of knowledge. Thank you

[BlackCat1982]

A smashing group of items to a glider rider. I wonder if he saw action in Leyte or Luzon?

[RH1941]

Looking at his letters home I don't think so . He was mostly occupation force

[Rescue190]

Yes it it a very late war (no action to my knowledge) force split into occupation force for the duration until points out. Great history

Beside the jacket the real hidden treasure is this 457th A/B patch

What a beautiful and rare patch! Its great to see the matching tab is still present too. You certainly made this patch collector jealous! Congratulations on the haul

[RH1941]

Thanks for looking John . I'm very happy that I get to take care of it for a little while .

[RH1941]
