hello
In the picture, I am able to buy all the buckles but I am really interested in the ones with tabs - 3 Luft and 4 Heer.
I have researched these but I am not confident of the values for each. Any help would be great.
Here is what I know about 1 of them.
The SCHNEIDER AG 1940" Is in UNISSUED COND - MINT
thanks for your help

Did anyone here happen to see the group belonging Second Lieutenant Gordon Thomas Collinson, RAF on AGM before it disappeared?
The description:
Group of material belonging to Second Lieutenant Gordon Thomas Collinson, a Canadian-born pilot who flew an S.E.5a with No. 41 Squadron and later served in WWII with the Royal Canadian Air Force. Medals include a three-place parade mount with: British War Medal 1914-20 impressed on the rim, "2. LIEUT. G.T. COLLINSON. R.A.F"; WWI Victory Medal impressed the same as War Medal and with Mentioned-in-Dispatch palm on the ribbon; and French 1914-18 Croix de Guerre. A separate, unmounted Canadian Volunteer Service Medal. Finally, two pieces of insignia accompany the group: Very attractive pair of 96mm wide, 1916-style, full-dress gold bullion wings with paper and canvas back for wear on the patrol jacket and a 1918-issue bullion, brass and red velvet cap badge for officer's below Air Rank. Comes with folder of research documenting Collinson's military career. Very fine group of material from an extremely active and effective fighter squadron

Hello Guys
Can you take a look at this restored tunic. My question is was it born as a WSS tunic? I am interested in it without the insignia. Any help would be greatly appreciated. :)

This detonator, which I believe is from some sort of hand grenade was found in Romania. It was found intact, slightly bent, but without the grenade and a bullet was also found a couple of feet away. I believe the detonator to be WW2 and German, since German forces occupied the area and the bullet headstamp also indicated "E K" which was a Greek manufacturer under German contract to supply munitions to the Nazis.
Does anybody know what kind of grenade it came off (if it's from one to begin with). I'd love to see a picture of what one looked like. What's interesting about it is that the top of it (where what's left of the lever is attached to the side) is circular in shape does not seem to show its inner workings (primer or striking pin). Maybe it is to the side of the handle and behind it, although I didn't tamper with it much since it's still intact and could pose a danger.
Would appreciate the help
Hi
Found this while browsing, maybe some of you have come across it before.Yet another tank was recently extracted from one of the lakes near St. Petersburg. There are plenty of tanks left since WW2, each year a few of them are being pulled out by different enthusiasts. This one is particular by its model BT which was translated as Quick Moving Tank. It had very narrow tracks so it had to move only on good roads, and the tracks could be completely removed so that it could roll on the rubber coated inner wheels on the good surfaces when army had to relocate quickly and there were good roads available.
