Here is a rare named Ike tunic named to Lt. Ed McMahon consisting of the following:-
Tunic dated 1945, badged with 101st patch and Airborne Command patch, 18 months overseas service bars all sewn in cross stitch needlework.
Pin back Paratrooper parachute wings,combat infantry award with clutch back fittings in sterling silver. Medal ribbons Bronze Star, Purple Heart, ETO with three campaign stars.

Information that came with the tunic was that Lt. Ed McMahon was from Dorchester County South Carolina served with the 82nd and was wounded at Anzio and later served with 101st Airborne and jumped in Market garden. This information has not been verified by me the information was written on paper and found inside the pocket.
