Posted on February 26, 2020 by admin Posted in army

WW2 U. S Army Air Force Parachute with Anniversary Leather Bomber Jacket

Packed World War II parachute with 50th anniversary leather bomber jacket. Makes an incredible display piece for your collection. My understanding is it belonged James Cothran Perrin, Jr. Jim served in the Eighth Army Air Force, stationed in Horsham St. He was a navigator and bombardier, flying Liberator B-24 bombers. The 458th Bomb Group entered combat with the 8th Air Force in February 1944. Based at Horsham St. Faith in England, the combat crews participated in the decisive Campaigns’Big Week’,’Big B’, D-Day and the assault on Germany’s oil industry waged by the USAAF up to VE-Day. The group also tested the operational use of’Azon’ radio-controlled bombs. The 458th flew a total of 240 missions, during which over 13,000 tons of ordnance was dropped, and was achieved at the cost of sixty-five crews MIA or involved in operational accidents. In the fall of 1944 the Group ceased bombing missions during to haul petrol to airfields in France as the Allies supply lines could not keep up with the rate at which the armies were moving eastwards. I would call it good condition for what it is. Has some frayed edges but overall pretty good. The jacket is in worn condition a little rough on the collar but for a display piece looks great or it could still be worn.

WW2 US Army Air Force AN-4 AIRBORNE CHEST PARACHUTE VERY NICE

Posted on June 17, 2019 by admin Posted in army

WW2 US Army Air Force AN-4 AIRBORNE CHEST PARACHUTE VERY NICE

This was the main chute, as part of the comeplete T5 Harness system. Not sure of the exact history of this item, as it came to me from a large collectors estate. Dated January 1945, this Parachute & Bag is in VERY GOOD condition, showing normal age and wear from storage. Slight tears and wear to the bag, but nothing that detracts. The silk parachute is included… But it appears to have been cut from the bag itself. The interesting feature is that though it was made during the war, it canopy features a “Made in France” stamp? Features the rip cord and handle, as well as all the original cloth labelling and ink stamps. It also comes complete with the original inspection card, that is dated 1945. It needs to be re-packed and someone took it apart at one time. Bungees are also missing. A PERFECT addition to any collection or display! TERMS OF SALE.

WWII US Army Air Force CATALINA HERO Pilots Group Crusher Aviators Parachute

Posted on March 3, 2019 by admin Posted in wwii

If youve come this far, please read the description! This group belonged to John Ree, a lieutenant in the USAAF in WWII retired Lt. Col USAF who flew a PBY Catalina flying boat in the pacific. Included are his crusher flight cap in very good condition, officers visor hat, dress pinks and greens jacket and shirt featuring 20th AF patch, issued American Optical aviator sunglasses in perfect condition with the case, AN-6530 goggles (rubber melted off, otherwise ok), earphones for a flight cap, several books, large group photo, small photos of him in the cockpit of a trainer and him with his crew in the blister of the PBY, two identical Air Force Association patches (of which he was a leader after his military career), and a WWII white silk parachute with lines in very good condition as far as I can tell. Also included are a newspaper article and two type written pages detailing some of his heroics. The period newspaper article includes his full account, word for word, of his rescue of 3 downed torpedo bomber aviators from Tokyo Bay. Ree and his crew flew their PBY over a jap destroyer and landed in the water to rescue the men, dodging flak and under fire from enemy patrol boats for 13 minutes, in a completely unarmed aircraft, they successfully retrieved the men from life rafts and took off again. Ree was awarded the SILVER STAR for this action. I assume the parachute may be from this rescue. The other account is one he wrote later in life of the last day of the war. They were flying on maneuvers around a fleet destroyer when they heard the announcement over the radio that japan had surrendered. Moments later he describes the sky filling with flak as the destroyer began firing on 5 jap zeroes that had come out of nowhere to kamikaze attack the allies. They held off celebrating until the next day, which was his 21st birthday. This guys stuff and his stories make for an astonishing grouping for a display.
