US Corcoran jumpboots

Hard to find minty pair of US jumpboots by Corcoran. The pair is nicely named to William M. Fuller and is in good, unworn condition. This pair was probably kept as “best dress” to be worn with a Class A or Ike jacket. The pair retains its original laces but they have broken at a few places. They can however still be laced up for display. A great minty pair!

William was born in Johnson City, NY on July 30, 1923. He served his county for 26 years as an Air Defense Officer, including seven years as a Senior Paratrooper, with the 82nd (All-American) Airborne Division earning three battle stars in World War II in the Battle of the Bulge, the Ardennes, the Huertgen Forest and Central Germany. In the early 50s, he served with the 11th Airborne Division at Fort Campbell, KY. During the Korean Conflict, 1951-1952 he earned four battle stars. Other decorations included the Army Commendation Medal and the Belgian Fourraguerre. Following military retirement in 1968, he became a real estate broker.
