Duffel Bag WW II 1943:
$20.00
Belonged to my Dad who was stationed in Iceland at a radar station (556th Signal Aircraft Warning Battalion 3d Army Air Corps) after training at Drew Field at Tampa (now part of the Tampa International Airport) in 1943. He and three of his brothers served in WW II. He added his name in Spanish on the other side when he went to Peru in the 1950’s. Made by Southern Athletic Co in 1943, possibly a division of Russell Manufacturing in Alabama (now Russell Athletic) after they bought out Southern Manufacturing Company that made athletic wear). I also have his 1939 ROTC manual from his time at Texas A&M before the war and his 1942 Officer’s Guide listed separately. Ships to lower 48 states of the USA only; no returns but please message me with any issues. Will discount shipping for multiple orders.
