The Marines weren’t the first to fight in Korea. But they were the first to bring the right tools for the job and employ them as doctrine dictates.
That is a great read, thanks for sharing. Now I want to somehow shoehorn in a Korean War armor build into this year.

As far as this stowage set goes, only the metal jerry can will work with the Pershing. Everything else is modern/current: late 1990’s to early 2000’s. The cots, ammo cans, and plastic water jug are good for as far back as Vietnam, but that’s about it. The rucksacks and sleeping Matt’s are 80’s thru end of the century, as are the duffel bags, tarp and tent rolls (actually those are the camo net and support poles with spreaders bags)
