Hi guys,

does anyone of you know any military surplus store in Manhattan or
Washington DC? The kind of stuff I'm looking for is basically military-
theme T-shirts. I'll be next month in both cities (I'm from Europe) and I
won't have a car. Therefore, they should be reachable by public
transportion, if possible.

Thanks in advance,

Frank's Naval Tailors, Flushing Ave, Brooklyn NY. Take the Independent
Subway, "A" Train from 42nd st in Manhattan to High St in Bklyn and walk
down Sands St to the old Brooklyn Navy Yard follow along the brick fence to
Flushing. It's about 2 blocks down. All kinds of military paraphernalia,
uniform items and devices.

You must be fairly old to be using "Independent". I've seen
some old IRT and BMT signs, usually embedded in the wall
tiles, what did the Independent have?

As an OLD native New Yorker who hasn't been back in almost a half century, it
was the newest of the subway lines and most of its routes ran between central
and lower Manhattan into Queens and parts of Brooklyn. Unless it grew like a
mushroom in damp weather, it's probably still that.

There is an Army/navy store on Broadway, down in SOHO. I believe its
called
Iceberg Army and Navy at SOHO--455 Bway / phone number is
212-226-8454. Its acessible by the N or the R train which would let
you off on Prince st and thenits acouple of blocks walk.

Yep. That would be me. Old guy. The Independent Line was abbreviated "IND".
The "A" train ran up 8th ave as I remember.
