Post WW2 Korean War 11th Airborne 187th RCT Jacket Named Photos Extras Rakkasan

This is a great Korean War jacket from a veteran of the 11th Airborne/187th RCT "Rakkasans". Jacket is a size 36R dated 1948. No rips tears or mothing. Has 11th patch, infantry enlisted collar disks, Korea era sargeant stripes, sterling marked Korea era CB jump wings which have been polished down, good conduct ribbon. Has attached memorial "dog tag" naming the vet made after his passing. Comes with khaki infantry garrison cap, loose 187th patch (no glow), a large colorized photo of the vet in uniform with his girl, and a small photi album with photos mostly of the vet in uniform, and also in jump gear ready to fly out. Many photos show the 187th patch on his shoulder.

One photo shows him in a military hospital, so he may be a PH recipient. The 187th saw a lot of combat in Korea making 2 combat jumps.

As it is named, this should be an easy research project, and displays well. Great rare find for the collector.
