WWII B-17 Gunner 8th Air Force POW Tunic Grouping 305th Bomb Group

Posted on May 28, 2018 by admin Posted in wwii

Offered is a great group belonging to Staff Sergeant Milford Rahn, who served during WWII as a ball turret gunner on B-17 Flying Fortress heavy bombers. He was a member of the famous 8th Air Force that operated from England on strategic bombing missions over occupied Europe. Specifically, his outfit was the 305th Bombardment Group (Heavy). He and his crew were shot down on their 3rd mission near Hamburg, Germany, and he was subsequently made a prisoner of war by the Germans. The grouping includes everything you see in the above images. This includes Rahns uniform tunic (complete with aerial gunners wings, ribbons earned, and rank and 8th AF patches), garrison cap, POW medal (with his name and serial number scratched into the back), two photos of him, some loose patches, and a cap badge. Also included is a binder with print outs of relevant info on his service, including the crews Missing Aircraft Report, Rahns WWII memorial page, and Rahns POW record summary. These confirm the above information on his service. The cap is named in ink to M. Rahn with his laundry number (as well as several other prior owner veterans), the tunic/coat has Rahns laundry number stamped in it, and the POW medal has his name and full serial number scratched into the back. Condition is good, although there are some minor moth nips. Most are pinhead sized and scattered, generally not noticed unless examined up close. There is a cluster of about five slightly larger ones that can be seen on the right collar in the second to last image. On the back is a small and faded stain, also easily overlooked, but pointed out in the last image. Considering the items age, this condition is still solid. The coat would display very nicely on a manaquin or padded hanger. The item “WWII B-17 Gunner 8th Air Force POW Tunic Grouping 305th Bomb Group” is in sale since Sunday, May 27, 2018.

Ww2 Polish Air Force Air Gunner F/sgt Getman Medal Group Poland

Posted on April 10, 2017 by admin Posted in polish

Medal group “awarded” to F/Sgt. Story reported in newspaper may not be entirely true. There is some debate as to whether or not he was entitled to all medals he was “awarded “. If there was any deception with this man’s awards , it would have originated with him. He is pictured wearing the medal ribbons early post war for all the medals. Knowledgeable forum site members have raised questions about this lot. There is a suggestion that Mr Getman was a little economical with the truth. It appears the documentation for the Virtuti Militari and another Polish medal has been falsified using original paperwork.. The deception appears to have originated with Mr. Getman and no one else. The medals are originals. There are a couple of Stars he was not awarded and the Distinguished Flying Medal is clearly marked as a copy. A good copy , not a recent cheap one. (there is no paperwork suggesting he was awarded it). Think family just got it for him. There is also a Commemorative Bomber Command medal in there. These were first available in 1985. On a positive note. We do know Flt/Sgt Getman was held captive by the Russians in 1939. Was in the Polish Army for 1 year 1941/42. Then served in the RAF / PAF from 1943 -1948. During this time he did serve as wireless operator and Air crew Gunner. We do not know whether or not he flew 45 missions , although the paperwork does say so. We also are unsure if he was shot down and served for a time with the French Resistance… Although paperwork suggests he did. From the records we do know he served with Polish 315 Squadron and there is plenty of photos to back this up. I will retain the album for my collection , although have scanned it to disc. There are also plenty of photos of him wearing air gunners badges. He did briefly serve in N. Africa with the Army and there are a couple of photos placing him in Italy late war. Including Air Gunners and Eagle badges , Dog tags , 315 squadron Christmas card , Polish Airforce ring and bracelet. WW2 map of Hamburg dated 1943 and Emergency Ration tin dated 1943. I have now scanned f/Sgt Getman’s photo album to disc. Feel free to take a look if interested. The item “WW2 POLISH AIR FORCE AIR GUNNER F/SGT GETMAN MEDAL GROUP POLAND” is in sale since Sunday, April 09, 2017.
