G.I. Joe; Army Green “SF” [LV] found a Home on this Colonel’s Wrist

Hope to see Y'all at the Jerry's Radcliff GTG...
Firstly, thanks to Rod E. and his fine family, and Mike, [TRF Moderator] for his expertise, guidance and counsel in this recent acquisition. Haven’t been able to take PICs yet so I’ve included BuckeyesFan TRF thread of May ’10:
http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=130587
16610LV: assembled in 2oo3, - -while I was in the deserts of Iraq; brought to market in early - -‘o4 as I was DEMOB’d and flow from Combat-Theatre; and is an all original early F1xxxxx, AD10 clasp Complete B&P; ( hopefully it will get along with it’s plexi-siblings [ ’54 Ref. 6564, 18k, ’84 Ref. 16750 ]).
Wanted to get this to commemorate my selection to Battalion Command, but the waiting list in 2oo4/5 was horrendous. Patience and timing will out.
For those fellow vintage-exclusive aficionados, ‘mea-culpa’ in advance, just had to acquire a daily wear trophy. For fellow Nylon Nation guys n’ gals it rests of a Corvus ‘Bond’ NATO three-color.
Again my thanks for a great guy Rod.


Christopher, Colonel58 TRF/VRF
