Steve,
I haven't been to the site very much lately, but I figured I would stop in just to bust your chops!
First, let me say... What took you so long to notice New England flasks?!
Second, I think you might actually have a GI-81 there. The GI-81 has 3 ribs INCLUDING the base rib, the 81A has two ribs including the base rib. I have attached a picture of my corrugated ribbed Lafayettes (from left to right) GI-80, 81, 83 and 84. Note the 80 has 2 base ribs and the 81 has 3 base ribs.
Yours looks like a pretty flask, and worth the repair.
Mike
