Another Navy issue Colt M1911...

[John Holbrook]

I acquired this Colt and all the associated equipment from the daughter-in-law of Lt. Bush in Seattle. He was the Communications Officer aboard the USS MINNESOTA until she was scrapped... The two spare mags were full of ammo dated FA 12.... She told me that the inlay in the stock was done in the Philippines during the 1920s...

This chit was folded up and stuffed in the holster...
