is Hayes still around?

I would date this shirt as one worn in the late 60s.   See here for more on this. https://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/86004-what-years-were-the-different-styles-of-fatigue-shirt-name-tape-used/   htps://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/256042-fatigue-uniforms-part-3-us-army-subdued/#comment-2051184  

Thanks Gear Fanatic. Oh and the key is also marked USMC.

No I am not a Ebay Rep and if I was I would tell how it is. The way you worded you messages is very telling. You had a bad experience that's that. It's not anyone else's fault that you had a bad experience.

🤪 Ebay Rep ? " As far as what you are dealing with that's on you not us"

Hopefully someone saved a few of the doors or shutters. Things like this are very popular here to decorate with or use as yard art etc. Would have thought even some of the siding would be saleable to collectors as anything "Normandy" related seems to have value and this definitely has history factor.

Looks like a fun and interesting project Mikey. I may have a old stock around.    You can leave it a bit rough and display it like a few of the rifles that are found time to time from the battlefields. I recall the one found on Makin Island. Charlie also posted a topic on it.   https://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/274458-1942-makin-island-raid-m1-rifle-conserved/

Wow, what Allan said was totally new to me and I have to be honest that in my case I was deceived of this patch and this is exactly why I join this Forum . Many Forum Members have good background knowledge. Thank you to all of you avoiding burn my money on this patch. 👍Great !!!

I've suggested to my heirs that they consign my collections to a (relatively) local auction house (who have already agreed to inventory and pack everything on site...) and dispose of it that way. Anything left over will be donated to their favorite charity or museum. Obviously, I'll be dead at this point and unconcerned about getting fair value for items, and the kids don't need the money, either...
