Okay, here's a few pics of our Raides and Para display. I've got to find which camera has the pics of the T5 WW2 USN/USMC parachute and auxilary chute, same type used by the Para's. Chutes were donated by Jim Waldon of Placerville CA. He's got more, he's going to assist us in doing a Para 'drop' photo shoot with the local air museum. Part of our 782 display on the far left you'll see part of a WW2 ParaMarine Jumpsuit: On our weapons display, it's all real steel. The top is an M1 Garand, match competition that was loaned to us by Tom Sharp of the Elk Grove Marine Corps League. The 03, Enfield and the very rare Johnson Rifle belong to WCR member Steve and the M1 Carbine is Kenne, also of WCR. Steve brought his collection of helmets also, including a WW1 USMC doughboy, and two pre WW2 'kelly's'. At the far left, you'll also see a USMC ParaMarine leather jump helmet:
