Nice haul.   Makes me wonder if passing on a Gerber MK5 for 50$ 2 weekends ago was such a good idea

I know the pics are horrible, but it’s what I could put together for the moment. thoughts on what’s good and what’s not?  Some are hallmarked some not, none are marked Sterling. thx

Here's the General Legge bar that I used to have.

I used to own a ribbon bar to Legge. I believe it  was the same configuration as what's on your uniform.   

Charleston S.C. was the birthplace of 9 officers that achieved flag rank during WW2. The overall state of South Carolina was the POB for 47 flag rank officers. Shown are 2 Charleston natives   Lieutenant General Robert Richardson 1882-1954, USMA 1904, he served for 42 years. Military governor of Hawaii, commanding General of all Army personnel in the central pacific. General Richardson USARPAC was responsible for Army training, disciplinary, logistics, etc. Richardson worked closely with the operational commander Admiral Nimitz.    Brigadier General Barnwell Legge 1891-1949, Citadel 1911, 37 years in uniform. Military attache to Switzerland during the war.   I don’t directly collect vets from any area beside local CA stuff but thought the coincidence was too cool to not share! Both these generals have vast amounts of info on their careers online that is definitely worth a read.

Found these in a grouping. My thought is they were altered for maybe an ROTC unit, police or something other than USAF. I see some on ebay, and some say USAF colonel and some say police. I am guessing that was a guess by the sellers and others just followed suit. Any thoughts on this?   Gold piping looks to have been altered and piping at top.

solved one of the puzzles, thank you very much, yokota57

That's awesome! Alton's Brother Carlos was married to my grandmother's sister. Alton passed long before I was born, but I knew his brother Carlos well
