Hi there, I've just got hold of these 3 items from a guy who's dad picked them up while serving in the royal artillery during the north africa, sicily and italian campaigns. Can anyone shed any light on them please? The afrika korps piece was sewn into a british army webbed belt which the previous owner then removed. Thanks alot cool militaria
I thought this may be a cool thread to start to see what all is out there. I'd love to see if any members have Sidcot suits, Fug Boots or any other types of flying gear.
Here are some examples of WWI aviator goggles I have in my collection; I'd be curious what the other members may have. All of mine, to the best of my knowledge are of English manufacture.
The first is a "Triplex FwT Model" with its original case.
Does anyone know of web adress ect of sellers of german m16 helmets in and arouind the ww1 battlefields please.
I bought this cord about 10 years ago and have never been able to ID it . I am thinking it is a Prinzen cord due to its size . But would like your opinions . It is 10 inches long as it lays . The braided part is about 5 inches . Most of the silver has worn off the copper or tomback cord over the cloth cord inside . The ends look to have been around buttons for sometime . Sorry for the poor scan .
I Thank You for all your help !!!

Hey, im new to this site and was looking to find out somethings on my stuff that i recently given.

I hope some of you guys can help me out i would be very thanksful.
Also have a "Double Sided NAZI Flag" 24x20 inches. Will post of picture of that later.
Will add more pictures upon request.
