So we will be keeping the Yellow Notification up through EARLY JULY!!
As we will be doing 4 shows over the next 3 weekends, and I will be on then road with most of our Military Artifacts from 6/18 to as late as 7/04 so there could be delays in shipping!!

ARTIFACT:
Gorgeous, late 1940's United States Army 511th Airborne Oval. The center features an embroidered wing surrounded by a medium, bright green border and a medium white border variant and is embroidered on blue Japanese silk, backed with twill. After the Japanese surrender, the 511th was stationed in Morioka, Japan during the start of the occupation of Iwate and Aomori Prefectures and remained there until 1949 when the battalions strategically departed for the United States. The photo of the three ovals is included in the listing for easy comparison of the variants offered, see links below for additional 511th Airborne artifacts from the Japanese Occupation period.
