This is a well used pair of original paratrooper jump boots with 12 eyelets.  They have been resoled and one of the soles is beginning to separate (see pics).  They will work wonderfully on a mannequin or in a static display.  They could be polished and shined, but I left them rough for an authentic combat look.  No legible size tag, but the soles measure approximately 12.5 inches.

WWII Polaroid goggles with original roll-out case marked “Polaroid, All-Purpose Goggle Kit, No. 1021.”  Made by American Optical Company in Southbridge Mass.  The original owner penned their name (Mullen) on the case flap (see pic).

The kit contains 1 pair of goggles with black elastic strap.  The foam part of the goggles are still supple and the straps have retained their elasticity.  The red plastic lens is void of cracks.  Included are three spare lenses (2 green and 1 red).  The case indicates there originally being a clear lens, but it appears to have been replaced with the red lens.  The two green lenses match the models originally included with the kit (Polaroid Glarefoil JC30FAP and Polaroid Glarefoil JC15FAP).
