Finally had some time to photograph things from last weekend and the new stuff from this weekend. Last weekend first, I guess some of this is from two weekends ago.
The Civil Defense helmet:

And today's finds.
I thought I had all these dummy rounds but never saw this one prior to today:

And this final item I did some research on to ensure it's legit. It is an experimental canteen cover that was never issued although a fair amount of them seem to have been made. These were made in the 1970's and after trials surplused out. Same type material as used by the entrenching shovels of the time. I had carriers like that when I was in the service in the 80's. I guess it was fine for the shovels but not for the canteens.

And lastly, not quite sure what it is, if anything. Said to be a US Navy blanket but most I can find are white with blue trim. WWI era blankets were blue but if this is WWI, it's extremly well preserved. Seller said it came from his neighbor who had a bunch of Navy stuff. For $5, he had no reason to make up a tale but I can't find anything firm on it. If anyone has any good information on it, let me know. It's the right size and construction seems consistent with other military blankets I have.
