Great collection Dave. I love how youve displayed everything. I fully agree with the location of the Red white n blue. Very fitting indeed placing it above all else. To say it doesnt have a place there is not correct in my opinion. It simply shows two very important countries' national symbols that were involved in the greatest conflict ever. anyway, a kick ass collection

The patches on the left are my grandfathers actual patches from WWII and Korea (WWII on top, Korea on bottom) and the three on the right, I bought because he was in the 8th AF during WWII and 5th AF during Korea)
Wow that is a beautiful collection of USAAF, now I understand why you wanted to stay focused.

A fellow member mentioned that I should put a colored background behind the medals to make them "pop" out. I wasn't sure if I wanted red to match the flag or go with a grey color to make it seem like the medals were on a uniform. Well, I went with Red for the German items and it looks great in my opinion. What do you guys think?
Also there are new items in the colection that weren't in the last grouping of pictures.Attached Files

i like the collection and how you have displayed it in the case. i guess it's personal preference to how things are displayed - they are your items after all - in war there are heroes no matter what cause they fight for, what is interesting to me is owning a piece of history. it's great that you have a personal connection with some of the stuff you have and display, too.
merry christmas!
