Sword Truck ID ?

[mete]

I had just a short instant to see , this morning , a sword. Well actually an 18 wheeler , with a sword --Picture -- that covered almost the entire length of the trailer ! A cavalry saber , white on blue background. I was heading east , truck was heading west .about mile 7 . Now it's starting to be an obsession to find the company .Help !

I guess I'll have to ask my trucker friends .

Maybe US Marines.
Some of their recruiting adverts utilise a big sword graphic.

OOOHHH !!! That must have been the one .I saw it for such a short instant . Certainly a saber , though I though it had a scabbard. Certainly wasn't my imagination.
Now I can relax ! Thanks !

Now THAT's a sword !! Wake up Mecha , here's a fumph hander !

"Earned, never given".

Too bad you can buy that exact same sword at any number of places online.

A fair number of 20th century US Marines nco sabers travel through Ebay and dealers. Many are 1950s on but an occasional older sword surfaces. This is one I bumped into over the past weeks

Great old sword, Horseclover! Atlanta/Windlass sells them too, "approved by the Defense Logistics Agency".
