Very Late war papers.

Guys,

Two late war papers, not to good condition wise but I could not resist the theme of the pics.

Five birds one aim, to make some blokes life a misery! By shooting him down.:D

I really like the Nebelwerfer badge as we have a lot at the museum in Celle but none with a swastika, so I conclude ours are all post war?

Like the soldbuch comparison photo with the Volksturm version, useful?

Who can pass up a Tiger?:)

Iraqi Helmet

Guys,

Picked this up today South of Hanover of all places.

Nice minty with I presume the owners details but I don't read arabic.

Note the Iraqi Ordance mark, it is quite hard to find things with it on as most of their gear was imported.

Regards.

Jock:)

Price of a Ritterkreuz without its ribbon?

Hey, guys, simple question: I was just wondering what the average asking price would be for an authentic RK without its ribbon?

Need help! M35 “something”.

A friend of mine has offered me an M35 and claims that it is a genuine SS helmet. I really need some help and advice on this helmet - but for personal reasons I do not wish to post photos of the helmet on this public board.
Can anybody help me, please? I can send the photos in an email.
