gear...I just barely remember a couple warehouse's of GI surplus in the mid sixty's: barrel full of rifles, shelves full of boots and clothes...a whole row of barrels full of rank insignia: wood stave barrels full of one type of rank each... radios, helmets shovels all USGI stuff...my dad was looking for something speific and we traveled to a couple...
