Details
This is an insignia lot from the estate of CDR Nelson. The lot consists of his SEAL Trident, Naval Parachutist Qualification Badge and his Commissioned Officer Hat Device. The trident is Hallmarked V-21-N. The Parachutist Qualification is Hallmarked V-21-N as well. The Officer's Hat Device is Hallmarked H-24-N The devices all appear to have some light glue residue on the back (I suspect he had mounted them to a retirement display). The Trident has one missing attachment point and one bent one. The Parachutist Qual is missing both of its attachment pins. Despite the damaged / missing pins, this is a named lot with provenance and that is rare and hard to come by.
Buyer will receive a PDF document that I put together covering the owner's US Navy career. The bio packet includes his Naval Academy Diploma, Commission in the Navy, Promotion to Commander while in Naval Special Warfare Unit Two, ID while serving in the Middle East, a great team pic in boats, and best of all, his hand written application to be a Foreign Service Officer after his retirement. This document has page after page where he outlines his entire career in the Navy to bolster his application as a Foreign Service Officer.
