A Box for an IAB?

[Mike H]

Gentlemen,

I know this box has been ID'ed before ...

Was this box for a GWL Infantry Assault Badge? Or is my memory not serving me well?

Help.

It could take an IAB or a PAB?

Hi Mike,

Mine has a BSW IAB

Best regards.

Looks like a good generic box which could have hold an IAB, GAB, PAB or even a wound badge ...

The answer

Thanks, Jordi!

You have provided the answer. I remember a thread on these boxes and IABs from several years ago. One of our members had a hoard of BSW IABs in these "cloud" boxes. Wrapped in tissue and the whole bit. Beautiful.

Though I am sure these boxes may have been used for badges other than BSW, I am more comfortable knowing where they were used for sure. Now we have it.

Thanks -- this box will be on sale at SOS, by the way. I am bringing almost my entire collection to sell and includes hundreds of items.

See you in Louisville!

I use to have 3 IAB's in these boxes, I've never seen anything else in these particular ones.

These boxes are only for the BSW IAB

i havent seen anything but an IAB in this box...

I'd agree with this based on my observations, all 3 of my IAB's were BSW's.

These boxes are only for the BSW IAB
