Hello, did navy pilots wear n1 boots or boondocker boots? Or would they wear a different kind of service shoe in flight?     Thank you, Landon Goodwin

Great thread! I did not see the variant I've got in my collection. Admittedly I know next to nothing about these. Is this one any good? No provenance - though it did come out of a collection with lots of good stuff (but not without some old  fakes).

Here is the third type MOH certificate. Notice Congressional is removed and the eagle at the top has been replaced by an embossed MOH the certificate represents ND IT Ws reduced in size,   medal of honor certificate.  medal of honor certificate

Named to a Lieutenant Colonel.

I checked those out 66 Cobra. Those are the wire cutter versions which are commercially available. They are selling these as the ones that were accepted by the USMC and thus extremely rare. Either out of ignorance or pure larceny. Eickhorn currently makes them for the Bundeswehr G6 rifle and has a Nato version. Eickhorn has them at $300 USD (257 Euros). There are 2 on Gunbroker for around $800 which is way more than what I paid for the real thing.

To add onto this thread, why didn't L.G. Balfour make a 3" small shield Service Pilot wing?

Zowee!!! 

Some additional RAR to share.  Fronts and backs.
