Hello,

I’m hoping that someone might be able to help me identify the the types of firearms listed on this capture paper, as well as possibly provide photographed examples. Of course, I recognize the P38 but the others I’m either less sure about, especially as military firearms. Is it possible that some of these were civilian pistols (used by the enemy) and therefore considered captured military equipment? I appreciate any comments or pictures. Thanks!

Tom

Here’s a document you don’t see every day! This para ID card is in used but excellent condition, and I am very fortunate to have this in my collection 😊

Unfortunately some of the ink has faded over the span of 74 yrs

When I seen this late war Schlueter front seam Swivel Bale four panel come up for sale in the marketplace it immediately caught my attention it was purchased through the Ruptured Duck ..
It has been repainted at least once in it’s service life the heat stamp as best I can tell is 352A which would put the production in late 1944..The liner was produced by the Seaman Paper Company and it is sporting black painted A washers. I am rather curios if this four panel would have been reissued for service in Korea or possibly Vietnam as the liner is sporting a piece of white medical tape with the name of one Shore G.T. service number ER11477159 it was suggested to me that the number would have been in use in and around 1968..

Regards Mark
