Just imagine a Museum with all WW2 militaria scaterred all over the world together! I'm talking about nothing left outside the Museum! No even a single button... A Museum that will combine all other Museum's collections and all personal collection together! Now that would be a visit to remember for a lifetime! It would have the size of a US State i guess but i, personally, would walk every inch of it! You sould have the chance to see a Koenigs Tiger and a B-17 and a Stuka and the above Standarts and a U-Boot and the remains of Hitler and his personal belongings and and and and and and and and ***mind blown***

Is it true that these Standards were destroyed be the last fighting forces in fear of them being exhibited by the Soviets at a common Museum? I heard that Adolf has blessed and touched every single Standard and thus they were holy items for the Nazis... This motivated them to destroy as many they could before the end!

You should read Ulric of England's "Deutschland Erwache" book on these Standards.

It's from Moscow Adrian. It's a massive display of flags and Standarden. I have been standing there dreaming a few times LOL.

I did check out the standards at the Museum of the Red Army (now Central Army Museum).

They have 'a few' other nice items there.

Here a smattering of crosses, that I snapped a few pics of.

I dont know, if you can see any crosses amongst the other relics - but there should be one of two crosses tucked away somewhere in there:

wow.a few crosses only

Our very own, Mr. Bob Coleman, has shown his example some time ago. Again, IMO, the pinnacle of this collecting hobby.
