Hello, Need help to identify what could be a Russian equipment item from desert storm, gulf war in Iraq. It came from a destroyed "chemical and medical" unit that apparently traveled together. Looks like some type of plotting board with sliding rulers and scales. I also have a Republican Guard record book (partially translated) from the same destroyed unit, all hand written, listing troop movements, orders and daily military log events. It is not Soviet so I hesitate to list it here. I hope to have it translated some time in greater detail.
Hi guys,
Just a few pictures from sunny Australia that show a P51 fighter and B24 bomber crash site area.
Thought you might like to see that some things can be found in Australia if you know where to look:)
Hope you enjoy!

So I've just decided to get into third reich militaria. To be more specific, coins. And had few questions. I've noticed that some coins from the same year are totally different. I've noticed that most i find have hinderburg/ reichseagle w/ swastika and yet others from the same year have hindenburg/ and postdam church (i believe it is). Anyone got any input on this. also if you know where i could snag some good deals on authentic reichmarks/reichspfennig coins. Let me know. Thanks.

Hello,
I'm thinking of buying this War Merit cross. It comes with a presentation envelope and ribbon. The seller has told me it was found in an old house in Poland.
The envelope is marked Deschler and Sohn, I see from this site their code is "1" but upon a closer inspection the ring is stamped "7".
Do you think the medal looks authentic?
Thanks for your help.

I was thinking about getting my father a kar98k for his birthday, but I have almost no experience with german guns. Id appreciate it if you could post pictures of your own mauser 98s and tell what I might expect as far as price for the different kinds. Thanks for all your help. -Dimitri
This was acquired at a Midwest USA estate auction. The 20th Ulan Regiment (Ludwigsburg) uniform is complete with woolen knee socks and boots. SOme items are unit marked issue pieces, others are private purchase. It shows considerable wear and the yellow facings are partially bleached out from use.
