Subject: Looking for equipment!

Hello all,

A few years ago (05-08) I was active in the 9th as a highschool student... I'm sure some of you will remember me... and I joined the Army back in 08, and haven't been active in the good ol' 9th since...

Well, long story short, I am stationed at Ft. Campbell, KY and am privelidged to have the opportunity to re-unite with my compatriots at Shiloh in a few weeks...

So, what I am asking: does anyone have any gear that they would be willing to loan me or let me 'take off their hands for a fee'? Below I will list what I am looking for specifically for this event, but I am open to anything you have for sale...

I would greatly appreciate any help, and in all honesty, I would rather buy something from one of you fine gentlemen and help us both out, than get it from someone I don't know here in TN...

If you are not planning on coming to Shiloh, but have something for sale or for loan that you would trust someone to bring up here and let me borrow your gear or give money to someone for you, that would be best... I have been in contact with both Jeff Gibbs and Ron White about this (crazy, I know... to trust Jeff...). :)

If you have anything that I am looking for, feel free to email or call (quickest way to reach me). I don't get on the forum enough. My phone # is 903-436-2820, and my email is phoenix3immortal@yahoo.com/larry.schores@gmail.com/larry.schores@soar.army.mil. any of those come to my phone, or I check daily...

Here are my sizes:
I am 5'7"/125 lbs... lanky
28"-32" waist/ 30" inseam
30"+ chest (aprx- can go up in size to about a 34" without looking ridiculous)
14"-16" neck

Here is my shopping list:
I need-
CS jacket
CS trousers
Full leathers to include: belt, bayonet sheath, cap pouch, and cartridge box
Various insundries such as forks, knives, pots, other cooking gear, etc

Anything else that you have extra and are willing to sell...

Thank you in advance to any and all responders, and all who are able to help me out, it is truly appreciated! And for anyone who remembers me and would like to catch up on the times, feel free to call or email me as well... I think about the 9th and the great memories i've made with you guys all the time. I miss you all and hope to see all my old friends at Shiloh; as well as make some new ones!

God bless you all, keep you safe, and keep yer powder dry!

Larry
