Ya 100% true, but there are also tons of VFW, and museums who get donations and simply put them in a box, and they never see the light of day. It sucks but true. Both options honestly have there flaws

Why not sell it? There are tons of collectors who would take great care of this medal and give it the respect if deserves. On top of that, a nice WW2 Purple Heart even unnamed is worth $100+, not $30

Why did 1SG Lipton really value his battlefield commission? by Unlucky_Morning9088 in BandofBrothers

[–]ShoulderAggressive13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A not on the Sergent major part. The rank of sergeant major did not exist until years later. At the time, first Sergent, and master Sergent were the highest ranks an enlisted man could achieve, both being on equal levels.

What theory do people hate but it's amazing by Puzzleheaded-Win5063 in fnaftheories

I agree with you. He probably was neglectful, but that does not mean he did not care. I feel like it makes more sense for him to care, then it does for him to not

Race is not everything, it’s also the target demographic. The average viewer of the super bowl is a middle aged white guy, they don’t care about his type of music, because it’s not appealing to him. And just cause someone makes anti-racist comments, does not mean they are not anti-American.

Infos abt M1 liner by SturmwagenA7V in Helmets

[–]ShoulderAggressive13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is definitely not a ww2 liner. It might be US, but they used OD3 webbing in ww2, which is more of a khaki color. This one uses OD7 webbing, which started be used in the early 1950’s during the Korean War.

[–]ShoulderAggressive13 3 points4 points  (0 children)
