yard sale find !!

[David R.]

Hi guys found this lot of SS insignia at a local yard sale on thursday.All of the tabs and shields appear to be Dachau made. The only thing I'm not sure what it is is the green stripes on the black wool. Too short to be US navy and wrong wool color. Any idea what it is?
Most of the items have been damp or wet but are in still very good condition. You never know what people have untill you ask!

The lady's husband cleans vacant and repossessed homes, He found the items in a shoe box in a crawl space this summer. They knew they were military but did not know from what country. I took a chance on them, It worked out well

The green two stripe patch looks like an USN Seaman Apprentice Aviation striker rank patch for a dress blue uniform. There are lots of variations of color and wool from dark blue to black.

Great haul, BTW, congrats!

I always wanted a job doing that.

I think you'd see a lot more flea-infested cat-crap minefield living rooms and unplugged freezers full of rotting meat than you'd see abandoned militaria.
