    A bit battered and missing the removeable tray but have been after ANY date/period footlocker for years so even more chuffed that this is Vietnam dated AND named.

    Fascinating foot locker Gulf, I really like stuff like this, especially the info on the label....just out of interest what size is the footlocker, and do you know who owned it originally?

    No worries, I'm in the market for a military issue footlocker, for a specific reason, and wondered what the size of these things are?

    Looking at the label I can see the original owner,cool piece mate, you did good to get it Wink

    Gary,I have been after a footlocker for as many years as I have been collecting,almost 30 years now and have only ever seen another for sale in the UK and that was again on Ebay UK but lost out so no idea where they can be bought for but do believe there are plans available if you fancy making your own.

    Would be cool if I could find out some more info about the original owner Cool
