Interest in World War II is stronger than ever. Some of the reasons for this are because vets are dying at the rate of more than 1000 per day and people are realizing that members of what Tom Brokaw called "The Greatest Generation" won't be around much longer.

Recent movies such as "Saving Private Ryan," "The Thin Red Line," "Enemy at the Gates" and "Pearl Harbor" also have helped increase the interest in WWII.

I believe these factors are driving up the prices of items associated with the War.

It remains to be seen whether the prices will continue to climb, but I believe they will.

Not too long ago, WWII GI field gear could be bought cheap in Army surplus stores. Check the prices these items are selling for now.
