So far, September 1945 boat ticket from South Hampton England to NY aboard the Queen Elizabeth (welcome home Grandpa)
1 Book from 1946 called "90mm" recording the exploits of the AAA in Europe during WW2, with Lt. Col. Sherehouse on the inside cover, with published letters from US Army C/O's, including Patton giving accolades to the 116th AAA guarding the Remagen Bridge, including a unit citation letter.
Lastly, an original Eisenhower D-Day Letter
More to come... when I find it

Yes, a ranking officers uniform from cap to boot of a SS Panzer Lehr officer (had in my possession for a number of years), Hitler youth dagger, Hitler youth belt buckle, Luger, etc. I am on the verge of putting together a Japanese officers uniform as well.
