Radovich Helmet Reference book

Hi Guys,

I downloaded the Radovich WW 1 Helmets book for free from this site..www.morefreeebooks.net search under history military, several other militaria reference books also some in russian.

cool militaria

Is this a ww2 russian army uniform

Hi All
I am very new to all this and have only just decided to spend some cash and get a uniform to wear at the next 40's weekend.
I have been on ebay and seen what I thought was a good deal to start me off with a basic ww2 russian army uniform which I could add to over time. However now I have ordered it and it is winging it's way to me I have been doing a lot of research and am now worried that what I bought is not as the advert told me a genuine ww2 russian soldiers uniform. I think that it may be a cold war uniform from the 90's. Could anybody out there tell me what I have bought? If I do wear it to the 40's event that is coming up in the next couple of weeks will I be laughed out of the place by keen eyed professional re-enactors? What things do I need to be looking out for? If the uniform is OK what would you suggest is an important item I should purchase next?
Any info would be greatly received

Die Kunst im Deutschen Reich magazines

Hi Guys, I have just been given several of these large size magazines (Art in the German Reich) cool militaria They were a popular art and architecture publication and were published monthly.

As can be imagined, the content is pretty much typical Nazi fayre, with many neo classical studies of nudes etc. As I am sure you don't want to see them ;) here are a couple of other illustrations. The artists involved were very much Hitler's favourites, Speer, Troost, etc.

Cheers, Ade.
