HI everyone,
I finally, with great anguish, decided to part with a
couple of WWII jackets I've had for over 20 years.
Nice nose art, and patches.
Additional items listed over the next few days will be
seen at:

WWII SQUADRON
PATCHES
"WW2
Squadron Patches For Sale" are now on their own pages ~ See
Links below
These are
extra patches from my collection. I was going to save patches of every
different style of insignia for each unit, but I recently changed my mind
about that. An example of how I previously saved them would be; Save 1
patch with a dark orange background, and save another patch with a light
orange background. Now I just pick one or the other, and I am selling the
other one here. If the unit you want isn't listed, then I don't have one
for sale, sorry.

WWII
BLOOD CHITS for sale
These are
extra Leather or Silk Blood Chits from my collection. I collect Blood Chits
of every different style I can find. I am interested in trading/buying
for ones I don't have. Let me know what you have. I am selling the duplicates/extras
I have here. I hope the Blood Chit you are looking for is one of
the several vintage WWII Blood Chits fo sale below. If the one you are
looking for isn't listed below, then I don't have an extra one to sell
you, sorry. Blood chits are usually associated with the AVG Flying Tigers,
14th Air Force Flying Tiger squadrons, and other units operating in the
CBI Theater. They were sewn on the backs (either inside or outside) of
flight jackets or flying suit and was intended to keep a downed pilot from
being shot or otherwise harmed by the local population, many of whom had
never seen a caucasian before. The flag of the government of the area being
flown over was shown, as well as a message written in the local language.
Paraphrased "I am a downed American Airman. I have come to help rid your
country of our common enemy, the Japanese. If you keep me safe, provide
food. water, shelter, and medical help to me, you will be rewarded by my
government when I am returned safely to my countrymen" (The US Allied Forces).

WWII US Army Folding Survival Machete / US Army Air Force Survival
Knife /Machete
This machete was a very popular WWII item and was one of Cattaraugus'
largest productions during the war. Also produced by Case, Imperial, and
by Camillus. Maybe others as well. They have black plastic handles that
fold back on the itself to reduce it storage size to measure 11 1/4" closed.
The blade locks into place when opened. Full size when extended is 15 1/2".
The black plastic grips are easy to hold. Also used during WWII as part
of the Pilot's Bail Out Kit to be used as an escape tool, for clearing
a path, for making splints & stretchers, for hunting, and as a weapon.
Original Army Surplus. There were 10 of these inside an ammo canister
I just opened. I kept one, and a couple are wanted by local collectors.
I am putting the few remaining up here. I cleaned one up for these pictures.
The others are as found with the grease/cosmoline still on them. I got
these at least 10 years ago and have stored them since then.
