    Kwajalein Atoll Captured Crate and Items!!!

    Hey guys,
    Thought I would share my SOS find this year. It is a Japanese ammo (?) crate with several items that were shipped home by a sergeant in the 859th Engineer Battalion off of Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands.
    The items which include a T89 knee mortar round, 20mm round, rice bowls, chop sticks, a scarf, a damaged piece of anti aircraft light, pieces to a dc motor, coral from the reef and sea shells are all listed on a 1944 dated wartime capture paper.

    There are also a lot of maps and blueprints on different airbases in which this gentleman helped build.

    Enjoy!
