hi guys bought a combat helmet not so long ago and it got me hooked on headwear aswell :rolleyes: so just got this sidecap about a month back and thought yous might want a look and also to see if the info i have on it is correct. ;)
nskk 2nd pattern sidecap is for rottenfuhrer of the nskk told by the chevrons stripes on the side and is light blue for hochland/bayer. ostmark (now austria) is this right guys? has the oil cloth rzm tag inside and the front buttons are marked rzm m5/82.
what would one expect to pay for an item like this also?
all comments are welcome
cool militaria
Quite without knowing it, I bought and later sold the cap on the left in this picture, now to find, to my surprise, that it appears in the Shea Beaver book.
Such are the vicissitudes of collecting and celebrity.
The cap now has a nice home with a good friend, which is all that matters.
The SCR 57 was part of a larger communication system installed on a few aircraft (mostly DH-4's) in the closing months of the war. The transmitter was a larger component and designated as the SCR 68. The setup represents the first model of aviation communication system attempted. Power for the main transmitter was provided by an aerodynamically shaped pod which was fitted under the aircraft. The pod had a small protruding propeller which provided current through a generator. These components were manufactured by Western Electric and they also made the leather flying helmet and components that are show in the paper diagram that is attached to the underside of the lid.
The condition of this example is near perfect, with all internal electrical components intact and unaltered.
I've just discovered bunkers and the stands for the guns, being walk at the coastal line from Ravda town to the Nessebar. Looks like they are German WW2 builded which was equipped with L 40, 24 cm S.K. (Schwere Kanonne)
This first position is on the half way from Ravda to Nessebar, the Nessebar is visible on the pictures. There a one MG bunker against a naval infantry and two of the gun nests

I was wondering what exactly the Littorio divison item was. It is not a pin. It has 3 small holes for mounting. And the skull. Is that RSI? Also value of each? are they at all valuable? Thanks
