Well, another unexpected find !
While rummaging around a local reclaim yard (which I've visited many times,) I decided to check out an old shed in the farthest corner.
There was nothing inside, bar a workbench with what looked to be a wicker pigeon transport box.
I turned around to leave the shed, and at the last moment I thought I would just lift up the front ... and Bingo !!!!
A totally untouched Medical pannier with full painted markings !!!
A nice surprise, although suffering from 60 years of grime and cobwebs ...
Enjoy !

I came over this badge from a friend working as a goldsmith.
this is only a wax inprint that have been molded in silver.
the tool for stamping out this badge is made by David andersen in oslo during the war.
what is it ? and have it been produced or used ?

Ok, I have been looking at this, and not sure if this is authentic, or an fantasy piece,
Please let me know what you all think.
Thanks

I picked up this patch lot from a friend who did an old estate buy-out. I believe all are WW2 era patches. My concern is the Screaming Eagle patches. i know that they were used through Viet Nam and newer. My question is are these WW2 era eagles? The tan borders lead me to believe yes. However with so many variants out there and the fact my main interest is SS/German stuff, i need a little help here. So are the Eagles WW2 ?
Here is a picture of some 45 tracer ammo dated 1945 . It is wraped in a moisture protective wraper .
This is one of my favorites,,,flak helper…………….dave h
