Eugene Sledge "With the old Breed " commemorative Ka-Bar

[dunc5]

Just wondered if any other members own one of these ?

It's a commemorative model of E.B Sledges book With the old Breed , all about his experience in the Pacific in WW2 and also one of the books H.B.O's mini series The Pacific was based on.
The sheath is signed by two surviving veterans R.V Burgen and T. I Miller.
