The President of the United States of America, authorized by Act of Congress July 9, 1918, takes pleasure in presenting the Silver Star to Staff Sergeant Louis F. Chase (ASN: 11016126), United States Army, for gallantry in action while serving with Company H, 2d Battalion, 26th Infantry Regiment, 1st Infantry Division, in action against the enemy in the vicinity of Caumont, Normandy, France, on 14 June 1944. His gallant actions and dedicated devotion to duty, without regard for his own life, were in keeping with the highest traditions of military service and reflect great credit upon himself and the United States Army.

Bloodstained US M1942 jump jacket ID’ed W2314
US M1942 jump jacket ID’ed with two different laundry codes, one W2314 and another hard to read inside the neck. The code W2314 indicates Fred Weaver 33272314, 464th Parachute Field Artillery Battailon of the 17th Airborne division. I can not make out the other laundry code, but that would be up to the buyer. There are several wartime rigger style repairs to the garment, and a number of blood stains all over the garment. The jacket shows insignia for the 101st Airborne Division. So Weaver was placed to another unit from the 101st or it was restored as such. I will leave it to the buyer but the sewing on the eagle patch looks old. The zipper is a restoration but functions properly and won’t show on a mannequin. The garment is a textbook, combat worn example.

KIA US 3rd Infantry Division helmet liner by Firestone
KIA US 3rd Infantry Division helmet liner by Firestone. This is a typical US M1 helmet liner in strong used condition. The sides have wartime painted US 3rd Infantry division insignia. Interestingly it shows that a second set of decals was carefully painted over, before stencilling the insignia as we can see it today on top. This is a typical wartime insignia application. The top of the helmet shows two holes which are correlating to the sweatband which is a blood stained example. This indicates the original wearer of the helmet was wounded or killed in action. Sadly the helmet has no name inside for research. The helmet originally was found in the Elzas area where the 3rd Infantry division saw heavy fighting. Rare piece.
