A museum-quality collector's set featuring experimental/prototype Shoulder Sleeve Insignia (SSI) designs for the 10th Mountain Division.

An extremely rare original patch of the UDT (Underwater Demolition Teams) dating to the Korean War era. These elite "Frogmen" (often nicknamed "The Naked Warriors") were responsible for hydrographic reconnaissance and beach clearance ahead of amphibious landings like Inchon. These units are the direct lineage of the modern US Navy SEALs.
A distinctive variation of the standard M1943 Entrenching Tool.
