Love it!
The way with which you have your items displayed is amazing! Thank you so much for sharing them timbaran and there is no doubt in my mind that you seem to be the type of person that can bring your museum to fruition/reality! Always wishing you nothing but the best! : )
tlmbaran, what is your email? I may have some items of interest to you.
I don't typically get into military memoribalia but this collection is VERY impressive !! Good luck with the museum.You've got a great start !!
Thanks, electobacco! I have some real nice stuff. Going to need lots of $$ and donations to get my museum up and running. I have the stuff, just need a secure climate controlled building, and be able to walk away from my job to do it....I have had my stuff on public display at both the Library and Village Hall....
Thanks, Hedgewalker!
Are you still looking to add to your collection?

I am "somewhere" in Illinois. Don't know where my museum will be. At one point I was looking at Vermont. But Wisconsin is looking good too. We shall see. I am years away from that, I can't retire just yet....
