      You are in the right section for the time period. If you are looking for an opinion on it, I'm pretty sure you want one from a guy who collects from this era.

      Saw this posted on FB today. Torpedoes used as gate posts. Here is the description form the topic   Second World War Torpedo Gateposts in Antrim! My photographs show Torpedoes which are being used as Gateposts near Dunadry. I believe they are 21 inch Mark 8's The original grey paint can be seen and sadly there are some small holes and rust. Fabulous Relics!

      Well, there's the whole matter of budget to factor into purchasing a classic vehicle.  😅 That Buick's original paint job was English Green according to the data plate. Green paint is visible where it has peeled underneath the hood. Another car up for sale my mate showed me was a Peugeot 202, It could always be painted up with some Normandy Ambush Camouflage. Anyway, the casual hunt is ongoing.

      Let's See Your US Shotgun Shell Ammunition Pouches

      Also, not a fan of the edging material.  Doesn't look to be like WW2 or US made webbing. Weave is very odd

      Admiral Herbert G. Hopwood, USN

      By Spartan19 · Posted

      Hopwood never eared the Bronze Star. His highest American award up until his retirement was the Legion of Merit with V and Gold Star for a second award. Kinda crazy he made full Admiral and was never awarded more then one Navy Distinguished Service Medal.

      Here's another picture of Admiral Herbert G Hopwood. This picture is of him being awarded the Philippine legion of honor on July 29th 1960. Hopwoods highest award is the Navy Distinguished Service Medal witch was awarded to him upon his retirement from the Navy in September 1960. However in this particular picture his highest American awarded is the Legion of Merit with V and Gold Star.
