Hi all, I have for sale a British Prismatic compass dated 1943. It was made in London, it is a Mk 3 and has the serial number 227238 on it, everything works fine on it. It also has a pouch which I bought, which I believe is a repro one Asking £75 plus postage

Hi all, I have for sale a late war buckle and belt. The buckle is a late war Overhoff buckle, it has a bit of surface rust on the front other than that it is in very good condition. The belt is a 2nd pattern one. The hook is marked D&C and it is RB numbered. Asking £85 plus postage

i found this site about a kingtiger they have found in Mantes-La-Jolie, France ,that is under the road .They wanna dig it up and make it into a memorial but it's gona cost too much to dig up the road.They got the turret up but thats all and that was 7 years ago.
Page sans titre

Hi

I was very lucky as I was able to get 2 tunics from the same soldier. His name was Fritz Beer. I was able to get information on him. He did not survived the war as I was able to get information from the War grave resistry.. I was not able to get his military records. The L on the shoulder boards is nice, but other speciaties other than the Lehr division used the L.

thanks

Juan.

I didn't know if this was the right place to
post this but I am looking for information
on Gottwald Stier—30+ Kills (StuG Brigade 667)
Knight's Cross (date unknown). I think I
have a couple of pictures of him working
as a interpreter for the British. It came
as part of a collection, one of the pictures
is of German POW's and had the following
notes with it.

Any information would be appreciated, a photo of him
would be out of this world!!!

Cheers
Kieron

Here is an Ironcross overdose. Warning! Not for the fainthearted collector!

While in Moscow I visited the museum of the Red Army/museum of the armed forces.

Whilst there I came across this glass pyramid:













































I guess you would have to cough up more than just a few hundred quids for the content of the glass pyramid.

Supposedly the decorations were captured on a train bound for Stalingrad, but I were not able to verify this, so please take this bit of information with a grain of salt.

Legal disclaimer: I will not be responsible for any collectors going into cardiac arrest over these pics.:)

I tried to find an introdutuion page but couldn't
find one. My main interest in WW2 is the North
African Campaign and have over 3000 original
photos and associated paperwork of this
fascinating campaign. alot of which can be
viewed on my website at

www.eightharmy.co.uk

I have been browsing a few of the threads
on here and I found it very interesting

Regards
Kieron

I really have no idea where to post this thread so I'll just go with this one. I have been researching my great uncle who was shot down and killed over France in July, 1944 and I think I found a P-47 that is pretty close to the one he flew. This particular fighter is from the same fighter group (358th) and has the orange tail that all of the aircraft in my great uncles squadron had.
