A Cavalry visor from the 1920's new to the collection. . .
An OGPU Border Guard's visor cap from the 1920's, I believe, currently residing in my collection. . .
Back again,
Well i hope you liked the bike's and look forward to your feedback on them. Allain's collection was so vast that most of us can only dream of what he actually had in term's of smaller item's but here are some more of his vehicle's;)I will post the entire lot of pic's i have in seperate thread's so none are too big.I went into the auction site before it officially started and saved all the photo's.Sadly i was not able to bid on anything at the time and my French is terrible:oAnyway hope i'm not placing too many thread's for our kind hearted administrator's:) Got to keep on the right side of them:D
Enjoy the pic's:b:

I guess this is not the proper forum for this Polish armband, but I didn't see a Polish forum. :) I was wondering what exactly this is, and who wore it? It is a very nice armband. It looks like a high-end item to me. It is made from what looks like Silver bullion. Any info will be greatly appreciated.
It is nice to know some history...

This Red Star was awarded to Major Andrey Yakovlevich Sergeyenko he was on staff of the 21st Army of the 1st Ukrainian Front-deputy chief of Army Base No 101. He contributed to successful fulfillment of the command tasks in supplying active troops of the Army in operations at Karelian Isthmus in June 1944.
Hi guy's,
I'm glad you all enjoyed the last thread i placed on German WWII Bike's and hope ive responded to most.I have mentioned that i have photo's of the example's that were in the Allain Rodeoux collection and auctioned off a year or so ago after he passed away (please correct me if i'm wrong).For those who don't know the name he was a guy who made Battlefield find's famous and many may remember him from After the Battle mag's.That's what got me into relic's in the first place so god love the man and may he rest in peace:)
May have to do some kind of dedication on the relic forum as a tribute to a real character and spirit of France.He live's in the Normandy area and wondered around the battlefield's as a young boy and after the war preserved many item's exactly how they were found.He was restoring some of them in the later part of his life but unfortunatly ran out of time like many more of us may do:weep:Life is too short for what we do but that will never stop us:D Here are some photo's of what mister Rodeoux has preserved for us fellow relic hunter's and collector's alike:)
R.I.P Allain!

I just wondered and I need to say thanks to the smart heads for a new law.
I was wait this law all my life and I'am happy that the peoples who create a laws such a smart guys. Everyday something new here- probably someone wait till the EU tell to others EU members- oh look what'a smart guy contrive a nice low! We absolutely forget about that...
Now abou the new law:
All bayonets must be deactivated- the part where they fastened to the rifle must be welded, due of potential crime can fasten it to the rifle and will kill someone...:o(
