A little of my collection: Danish WW2

[FrederikBN]

Hello all.

I just thought I wanted to share with you some of my collection. I primarely collect Danish militaria from the periode 1900-1943, but as you might have noticed, then there is also a little German thunderstick on the wall.

Something that you don't see that often outside of Denmark, so I hope you like it!

I am always looking to add more Danish to my collection, so you are more than welcome to write if you have something, or if you have any questions regarding the collection, or items in it

Very nice and well displayed, those Danish helmets are hard to find these days in the original army configuration.

Thank you very much Steve! They are a bit more common here in Denmark, but they are getting harder and harder to find. Two of these are actually from the navy.

Here is a little bit more. Sorry for the quality of a few of the pictures. The Danish M/23 helmet, one of the more iconic helmets of the war. In 1941 a civilian version of the helmet was made, the so called Civilian M/41. This helmet is often referred to as M/23 outside of Denmark, but there are some clear differences between the two, one of which is the weight itself.

The helmets here are all, but one, M/23 and different variants. 4 of them is of the M/23/38 variant with the sand coated paint. This was meant to break up reflections. One of these M/23/38 is from the navy, the 'type 2' helmet with a decal. One of the other helmets is the regular M/23, and one is the 'type 3' marinehelmet.
