National Geographic Insignia and Decorations of the US Armed Forces (1944)
My son picked up a huge number of National Geographic magazines from the 1910's to 1970's and found this in the middle of it. He knew I would like it. Anyone ever seen this before? The exact same size as all the other NatGeo's with a "brown paper" like cover. VERY interesting stuff. Wish I could digitally scan it all for this group.

Four years USMC 0311 in one picture. 2007-2011.
Feeling nostalgic after this sub popped up. I didn't keep any of my stuff, so I just used a rack builder. This is probably a pretty standard grunt stack. Sometimes I actually miss it.
Cutting scores were stupid, but I could've picked up Sgt if I re-enlisted. They offered me a B-billet, but on the condition that I return to a Victor unit after three years. I said hell no, hopped in my truck, and booked it out of California.

Shadow box recommendations
This is my little contribution to my 4 years of service. Anyways, I’m just trying to see if people can post their home made shadow boxes to get ideas on what to add. I know some people prefer to send their stuff in to have it professionally made. I’m trying to do it myself to give me something fun to do. I’ve seen some guys on here getting super creative. It’s awesome! Thanks guys! I’ll post my finished shadow box when I get it done!

4 years in the Marine Corps
Was in from June 2022-June 2026. I was a 1371 Combat Engineer but spent most my time in the fleet attached to victor units. It wasn’t much but it was honest work

Italian identification
So I found this thing (first picture) at a flea market. I couldn't any reliable answers on Google so I came here. I bought this in a lot with everything in the second picture except the medal. I included everything incase it might help. Im looking to find out what it is.
