April 3, 2015

Yesterday was my birthday - no joke! When you have a couple of kids the adults don't always get a lot of attention and that was the case for me. But at least my mom sent me a card. 🙂 We are going to plan something a little more special next week when the kids go to grandmas house for a spring break visit.

I really like unit patches and a few listings in today's block are on my watch list. The nice jacket pictured below is for a Naval aviator but I'm not quite sure why there is a submarine patch on the pocket. The gunning bunny is from a fighter squadron assigned to the 8th Air Force.

I looked a little deeper into the pith helmet below. The seller is out of Russia and only has a feedback of "2". Hmmm... I think I'll pass on that one.

This block contains a lot of swords and helmets. Since military collectors generally like those two pieces I don't have a problem stuffing it so full.

I enjoy camping and it looks like you could use the Swiss pioneer sword in the outback. I don't know how the Scouts would react to you carrying a saw back sword but it's way cool.

I hope you have a Happy Easter and I'll see you again Monday on the other side.
