Offered for auction is a beautiful grouping to combat medicnamed Jesse M Nobles. Jesse was born in 1940 in Texas and enlisted in August 1942. From this time, he underwent training to become a combat medic and served 1,5 years overseas. His patches indicate he participated in major campaigns in the pacific area of operations, as indicated by the rare China Birma Patch originally applied to his jacket. In the online military archives FOLD3D.com, he is shown to have been admissed to a hospital (injured or disease?). I can, when I get my account working on that website, the detailled files later. Anyway, this beautiful grouping consists of;
- his NAMED (see photo's) A-class jacket with combat medic sterling badge, medal bars (Good Conduct Medal, Pacific campaign medal with TWO battle stars, WW2 Victory Medal and US Campaign Medal). The jacket has a set of beautiful medic collar discs and is dated 1942 and is in really nicely used condition, and has original applied China Birma Theatre Operations Patch on the right sleeve and a Western Pacific Forces patch on the left sleeve. The rank of 5th Tech Sgt chevrons are also present and a 3 overseas bar patch, indicating Jesse M Nobels served 1,5 years in the pacific theatre of operations as a combat medic. He also received a Meritorious Unit Commendation patch which is neatly placed on the lower sleeve.
- his personal medical brassard, clearly used, found in his front pocket
- some additional US Medic collar discs, cap badge insignia, older rank chevrons etc, also found in the pockets when I bought the jacket from an estate
You dont often see a nice named jacket with a STERLING combat medic patch and originally used brassard from the same person. A really great set fo your collection!
