USGI Canvas Shower Bucket. We have two "shower buckets" available (DSA 69 / 70 dated). These are both in excellent used condition showing some dust from storage riding around on vehicles. They feature a canvas bucket with heavy strap to allow the bucket to be suspended. There is a galvanized shower head on the bottom of the bucket that can be twisted open and closed to allow the water to flow making a field shower. These are great to use in a firebase set up, field shower, on vehicles etc. Hard to find VN dated examples and these are in nice condition. Priced per bucket. Learn More

With Parachutist Helmet production stopped in early 1945, there was a need for M-1C Parachutist Helmets late in the war for the preparation for the Invasion of Japan and you the 11th ABN grabbed up as many helmet liner as they could. This is where many of the "rigger modified" helmet came from. There were also new, factory production Type II liners made between the end of WWII and the early 50's but the 11th ABN and the 82nd still had demand for Type II Parachutist Helmet liners. As a result, contracts were issued to convert existing stock to Type II liners. This helmet set is an example of a Type II Conversion fulfillment piece. The liner is a WWII Capac with steel rivets used for the A yokes and an early lightly marked web chincup. The helmet is factory repainted front seam with light texture vs heavier cork and the ABN chinstraps have green painted hardware. Josh Murray took a look at it and agreed it is a nice, solid example of a Type II Postwar contract fulfillment helmet and is likely a factory matching set with shell and liner. This set came from the estate lot of a retired Navy Seal who served from the early 70's through the 90's. Not sure where he came across it or what the story is, but it came from his storage unit.

This is a nice, field grade + Lightweight Rucksack in fairly complete condition. what appears to be unissued condition. Rucksack has original frame, bag and straps. The frame is a P68 style with both upper and middle horizontal straps (both present) as well as the center vertical strap. The only straps not present are cargo straps and a waist strap (which is almost always missing). The instruction sheet is in the top flap but you cannot make out the DSA ink stamp. Overall the nylon bag is solid with no major damage, just some soiling and wear from use. This is on the higher end of a "user" ruck and has lots of life left in it without being so nice you would be afraid to take it to the field. Learn More
