parachute flare

[dano1917]

Saw this on a web-site of a militaria seller and the condition struck me as unusually good so I decided to go ahead and buy it. It is a 1969 dated U.S. green parachute flare. I wanted to get something not too pricey with the holiday coming and all and Vietnam dated, so it was a "no brainer" when I saw this one...Dano

The Same...

Cannot help myself, especially when it has to do with Vietnam!

As you can see, I have a problem pictures on numer's 8 & 9. These are genuine SF Survival Kits which SOG carried at times "Across the Fence". It is hard to get a good picture of it but there are still a few items you can ID. I bought this kit around 12-15 years ago when I was still collecting componets and kits from SF and from the (almost all) pilots in the Air Force and Navy would carry. These are also the kits found on their Survival Vests such as a SRU/P-21 for the Air Force and Army Pilots and the a few others I cannot recall at this moment.



If you were to find this kit which I will show more of, for less than $1,000 buy the *&^% thing! Mine was brand spanking new back then and it cost me $600.00

Agree 100% grog, As I have had transactions with him more than once in past. A pleasure to deal with, he is prompt and honest. He does have some really nice stuff on the block. He is one that has the double threaded practice lemons, and also practice MKII's at decent prices. Hope to continue to do business with him in the future. He also has a totally awesome WWI French light tank!!! How is your collection coming?? Dano
