The early bird gets the worm! In High School I used to work at tag sales. Remember people lining up before the sun comes up.

You did great! Congrats.

Thanks boys . On this one it got a little ugly people tried to take stuff out of my pile and got mad I wouldn't brake up the grouping.

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

That is a very impressive find IMO. Not common. I forwarded this link to to a friend of mine who's dad served in both of those units and has a great amount of history. Maybe you can connect with him to fill in the blanks. The guy is a savant in history.
