My father passed away a month ago, he told me that he was in the German army on the front lines, he left this for me. I would like to know what this is worth and what the different badges mean. Thanks for any help you can provide.
This is a model 35 field police helmet well worn about 65%on paint and90% on decals.
Hello
Picked these 2 card up last week at the Liverpool Antiques fair. Never knew much about the battle in Verdun so looking into it. Very sad photos, but not as sad as the fact that a lot of this has been stripped by visitors and collectors and not much remains of the site now!

All the best from Sindelfingen/ Germany
Atop one of the hills surrounding Philippsburg, I found this piece of metal near a foxhole presumably occupied by Americans during January, 1945. I cleaned it up and was surprised to see that it has wood attached between the knurled knob and the "base". While I can't attest for certain, I don't think it's incidental wood from a tree that grew up through it.
One image shows the bottom of the piece with the parallel rails that appear to allow it to slide and afix onto another piece. Perhaps the knob would tighten it. I thought it might be a sighting device for something relatively small...I don't think they would have been able to get heavy stuff up those hillsides (but I'm not sure of this).
Any ideas as to what it could be? I neglected to include a measure, but it's approx. 4.5 cm long.
Thanks!
