WWII US 82nd Airborne Division 505th PIR Robert B. Jordan Jr. Grouping

A fine grouping of insignia and artifacts retained by Jordan following his service in the ETO with the 82nd Airborne Division that include escape maps, Pathfinder patch, dog tag, CIB, and tailor-made bullion jump wing. Of particular note is the Girard-Perregaux wristwatch taken from a downed Luftwaffe pilot during the Battle of the Bulge.
