AP Holster '63-'67
This is the type of holster we used at McCoy AFB Fla. (SAC), from 1963-1967. The Security Section used the swival holster on a web belt with a dump pouch, a belt pouch for a first aid pack, which was perfect for holding a pack of Marlboros and a Zippo, and a canteen.
The Law Enforcement Section wore the same holster on an adapter for a black leather belt and cross strap and dump pouch. We also had a night stick with a leather carrier. No handcuffs, they were at Base Police Headquarters. Go figure.
The M10 shown is the type of revolver we carried. They were all beat to ****, terribly worn and stamped "Property of U.S. Navy". As I was leaving in 1967 the Security Section was being issued M15.
