Nice find. I used to have one like that when I was a kid back in the early 1960's and there was an "Army-Navy" store in our town. My favorite place to visit when "downtown". They had all kinds of surplus there from WWII and Korea. Wish I now had that all the gear that I bought there when a kid.

Thanks for your service.

Cool knife. I really like those thrift shop finds. And vintage military stuff is always fun to pick up. Especially when there's a personal connection as well.
