mk1rceme Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 Recently purchased this from a friend. Came with details on where the items were found. The smock and the chest rig were from a previous deal with him so they are not detailed, but captured at Nasiriyah. His name is blocked for privacy.
mk1rceme Posted February 18, 2014 Author Posted February 18, 2014 Also, As Saiga is actually As Saiqa...and the 1990 date should be 1991 based on the timeline of the war. I picked those out right away, but I wasn;y going to question the guy...lol!

Paul R Posted February 19, 2014 Posted February 19, 2014 Those two groupings are pretty cool. It is interesting that you have the 1st LT's photo ID, uniform, and beret together.
mk1rceme Posted February 20, 2014 Author Posted February 20, 2014 I was pretty lucky to get this offered to me, but I know very little about Iraqi items. I'm a Commonwealth collector mainly.
