British 6 Pndr Gun Sight!

Hello all,

Thought I'd once again share the latest addition to my collection.

I beleive it is from a British 6 Pounder anti-tank gun. It was found by a friend, half buried in a ditch in Normandy.

As usual, comments are very welcome! :)

Japanese Naval Belt buckle

Thought I'd show my first Japanese buckle. I have many, many German examples ... but this is my first Japanese one. Navy model that is in two pieces. Quite heavy!
Looks like it is arsenal marked as well - but I have no clue what they mean (yet). Anyhoot - couldn't pass it up as I do like Japanese items more and more and, hell, I'm a buckle guy!

Here are some pics! ....and if the arsenal markings do mean anything to anyone - I'd love to hear about 'em! Thanks in advance!

Combat blue luftwaffe buckle

Hey gang....Here's one that arrived yesterday: a nice combat blue Luftwaffe buckle. Made by Richard Sieper and Son and dated '42 on the tab (quite difficult to read though). Thought I'd throw up a couple pics.....Now that my display cases are full - I thought I'd start using the buckles on display with some helmets....;)

Cheers!

Rob

WW2 tour vacation package suggestions?

I was wondering if anyone knows about any nice WW2 type vacation packages? What I mean is, if I wanted to fly to Europe from California and tour the Eagles nest or Normandy, what would be an affordable vacation package? I would love to go to the Eagles nest and possibly tour some other neat WW2 historical sites such as the Wolf's lair, etc.
