Article about: Ya Mo, very nice and not cluttered up. BTW I won't forget the help I got from you not so long ago when I first signed on here with questions about some dumb old helmet and other bits. Will w
This is the top of my dresser in my room. I have some of my favorite German militaria on top of it for display. This is just a fraction of my collection, but the cream of the crop in my opinion.
Here's the rundown on this display:
Q64 single decal Heer M40, a no-decal ET68 M40 with a net, (The only original thing about this helmet is the shell. I refurbed the previously poorly painted shell myself.) a salty Heer EM/NCO's private purchase signals visor cap, a 1938 Gebruder (Kugel & Fink?) Ludenscheid Heer buckle with 1938 dated tab, found on a political belt, unmarked 25-year service medal, ostfront medal, and mutterkreuz in bronze, matching fnj42 K98 bayonet, Heer breast eagle, unmarked minesweeper badge, pair of police meister shoulder boards, and a couple of fake silver wound badges for fillers.
For some reason or another, I don't have any real wound badges in my collection. I'm waiting for a nice cased silver '30' that I can afford.
