Korean War Era US Navy or Air Force Parachute USN/USMC NB-6 C9 parachute 02-080

Up for sale is a Sigmund Eisner parachute manufactured under license of Pioneer Parachute Co. I believe this is the 26 FT MILITARY parachute in the military pack.

I believe this was a. USN/USMC NB-6 parachute and that is how I came up with the size. The USN used a 26ft canopy based on my research. I was told that the color of the chute indicated that it was navy.

The chute is still sealed and I did not open it. I do not know the status of the parachute inside.

If you have any questions please ask. This also looks a lot like the C9 28' parachute from the same year. The chute seems to be made from a cotton material and there is a purple colored silk inside the case. I did not find the inspection log book with this chute like I did others. The markings do show that is was manufactured in 1952. The item "Korean War Era US Navy or Air Force Parachute USN/USMC NB-6 C9 parachute 02-080" is in sale since Wednesday, February 21, 2018.
