I recently came across some surplus 10th mountain skis including these 60s vietnam era undrilled pair and poles.
So I thought I'd start a military ski thread. Anyone have some cool ski/military items?

In the late 70's early 80's I mounted a pair of military skis for my brother in-law who had to get on snow training as part of his Green Beret training. They were Rossi skis made in USA. He has a size 13 foot and the military didn't have a boot for him. The shop I was working in at the time had a 13 boot in a basic beginners model and I think I put a pair of Salomon 505 or 555 on the ski. He didn't continue to ski after he retired from his 20 years in the military.
