The gates of hell were opened and we accepted the invitation to enter" 26/880 Lance Sgt, Edward Dyke. 26th Bn Northumberland Fusiliers , ( 3rd Tyneside Irish )

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

First German made tab for the Estonian SS , they hated it and it was changed to the pattern that Dave has posted !

True Dim the trouble with the early collar tabs from the Medical facilty in Tartu is that unless there is provenance directly from a I / 45 Regiment veteran how can they be authenticated 100 % !!

Re: Post your favorite SS Item!!
Samir, that is a beauty.
How is it a 'commercial' shell?
I assume this is from one of those companies contracted to make helmets.
