FEATURED ITEMS:

1 M1C Helmet LinerThis is the last pattern of the M1C produced.  Dated in the 80s, the M1 and M1C went out of service at about the time of the invasion of Grenada.  This helmet has the A frame straps, helmet chin cup, and has the female snaps to attach the tabs of the chinstrap from the steel pot.  Very similar to the WWII model, this liner is ideal for fabricating a re-enactor version of the WWII issue helmet.  It is also the exact pattern used in Viet Nam and has the attaching buckles for the rear cup harness that went behind the head of the wearer.  Obviously, they don't make these anymore and these are in mint condition.  Comes with chin cup and leather sweat band.

Order one while they last at $35
2 M1931 Cavalry Boots, Size 13C, these are supple and look almost never worn.  Some scuffs and a little of the surface flake on the tongues, but all in all the best pair of US Cavalry boots I have ever owned.  See Doughboy to GI, pp 151.  Awesome! $300
3 Correct D-Day Helmet Net, scarce brown or olive net circa 1943 with the  3/4" squares. These are the Canadian made for the US M1     helmet as part of the Reverse Lend Lease.  Mint condition, still has the new smell of the anti-fungal treatment.  Has woven drawstring, mint, right out of the bundle, known as the Type II helmet net, documented in Steel Pots by Chris Armold,  hundreds sold for $30 or more on ebay.  When this lot is gone, there will be no more. $25

US Paratrooper Scarf, just like the WWII pattern, these are cut from a 1952 cargo chute.  Scarf length is approximately 18 inches by 4 feet, no WWII US Airborne impression is complete without one.  Priced to sell, these early chutes are very hard to find.
