I have completed my collection!!!

**Bodey** · 01-18-2020, 02:11 AM

HAHA we all know the title is a lie! In actuality though, today I received my M18 transitional helmet, thus crossing off the final item on my bucket list! There is no theme to my collection, just various items that have caught my eye. A large portion of my collection consists of bring backs from family members who were in the military (pictured). While some of these artifacts have been in my family for a very long time, I have only been actively collecting for about 5 years. I had to cut a lot of lawns and deliver a lot of pizzas to make it happen, but I am thrilled to finally share my "complete" collection with you all. Many of the items pictured have been checked out by all the helpful friends on this forum. Thank you to everyone who helped teach me, and I hope you all enjoy! Feel free to ask any questions/ask for closeups.

Cheers,
Bodey

Thank you! At this point I may just search for various tunics that catch my eye. I have a few more US ikes that I could not include in my setup due to the age old problem: lack of space! LOL

Lack of Space? LACK OF SPACE??? You have PLENTY of space.

You should come join the UWRM club.....and learn how to create space.

Ugly War Rooms?

BTW...very nice collection and well displayed!

"I have completed my collection" - said no collector ever.

It's certainly a diverse and varied collection. I think we can call you a "generalist" collector, nothing wrong with that, many are. And nicely presented too, some of us could learn from that!
