Colonel Bubbie's can supply your military uniform needs with uniforms and accessories for Civil War, Spanish American War, WWI, WWII, Korean War, Vietnam, Desert Storm, and Current Issue Militiaria. They have a gigantic warehouse, full of uniforms from more countries than there are in the U.N. - located right in the middle of Galveston's Historic Strand District!

With one of the most complete lines of genuine military surplus from around the world, re-enactors of military conflicts from the Civil War (North and South), through WWII (U.S., British, German), the Korean Conflict, Vietnam and Desert Storm will find "pieces of history" to add to their arsenal.

The center is a virtual treasure chest of military uniforms. The Col. has provided costumes for productions of all sizes including theatres, local playhouses, university drama departments, and nationally known touring companies. He can supply uniforms for large mega movies and small local advertisers.

Colonel Bubbie's is one of the free world's only surviving genuine government surplus stores, just like the ones you went to as a kid. Collectors world-wide have discovered hard-to-find "treasures" among the Colonel's vast inventory. If you are a collector of militaria, and want something special, give the Colonel a call, he may surprise you with what has in stock. The Col also keeps a complete line of U.S. Military medals, ribbons, awards and insignia in stock.

The store also has a tremendous inventory of military back packs, sleeping bags, tents, blankets, ponchos, cold weather gear, hot weather gear, boots, medical corps, and other miscellaneous items.

The Colonel's goal is to meet your military government surplus needs. Please contact by phone, fax, or email with any questions or requests you may have.
