Ehrenkreuz für Hinterbliebene 1914-1918
I do not own many Ehrenkreuz in my collection, but I liked the look of this one and decided to purchase it. I hope you like it.

Important! Honesty in collecting
Just a thought, and by no means a damnation of anyone
I recently was posed with a moral quandary…
One of my wife’s work colleagues heard of my interest in collecting German militaria….it seems her grandfather survived the war and emigrated from war torn germany reestablishing himself in Australia and prospered….he recently passed and she was tasked with sorting his affairs. On cleaning out his basement she came across a trunk filled with various items and his war diary, which revealed some of the secrets of his wartime activities which caused her some anxiousness as to wether tell the family….I was not, and did not want to be privy to what the diaries contained….suffice to say she asked my wife if I could come over and give her an idea of what was there and to make some connection to what was in the diaries…. It turned out he wax a Grossdeutchsland veteran and amongst his items was a SD M40 helmet, complete, some tunics, armelband, field gear, EK2 with documentation, caed silver wound badge and a sports badge….she then old me to take whatever I wanted as her main interest was the diaries, and my information enabled her to put things into a historical contest….well apart from my jaw hitting the floor and the drooling, I couldn’t not tell her she had some very desirable items, that were worth a bit of money…..the collector in me was screaming, but I put her into contact with a local dealer friend, and he offered her AU8000 for the lot, which she happily accepted….
I missed out on this stuff for free, but I felt better knowing I had done the right thing…..
Any thoughts?
Grabenpanzer ….please advise
I recently accquired this Grabenpanzer and I could use the forum help. It weighs 20 pounds and is in excellent condition (almost too good) and I was wondering if this was a repaint and if it may have been restitched. I believe it to be an authentic piece, however, any opinions would be appreciated. There are no markings on the main part of the Grabenpanzer, however, the three subsequent plates are numbered, and the bottom plate has the number and the three interlocking circles which I believe was for the KRUPP factory.Attachment 306828Attachment 306829Attachment 306830Attachment 306831Attachment 306832Attachment 306833Attachment 306834Attachment 306835Attachment 306836Attachment 306837Attachment 306838Attachment 306839Attachment 306840Attachment 306841Attachment 306842Attachment 306843Attachment 306844Attachment 306845Attachment 306846Attachment 306847Attachment 306848Attachment 306849Attachment 306850Attachment 306851Attachment 306852Attachment 306853Attachment 306854
Respect.
Just under two years ago I came across this forum completely by accident while doing some research. I had a look and joined up because although the forum was fairly small, the members, content and general atmosphere was very welcoming, friendly and comfortable. This was in direct contrast to other forums I’d been frequenting where the ambience had deteriorated somewhat and I no longer enjoyed the time spent there. I recognised many names here and knew this forum was a decent place in which to discuss my hobby with like minded people.
Unfortunately over recent months I’ve noticed and I know I’m not alone, a growing and rather disturbing trend whereby members seem to be driven by egos and attitude. This is simply not acceptable for the health of the forum.
Today I sat down and opened a thread and was quite frankly absolutely disgusted by the content contained within.
A new member, on his opening post had asked for help with an item and also for help to post photos of said item. Instead of the members here welcoming this member with friendly advice and help as he had asked for, he was treated to a barrage of sarcastic replies and in one instance an insult. the only person who offered to help was a Moderator.
Is this acceptable behaviour from the members of this forum?
To be blunt - NO.
I have no idea what instigated this response but I will make it perfectly clear right now that it will stop right now.
This forum is open to view across the world and we would like it to be seen as the place I described in my opening paragraph. We would like new members to join and participate in the discussions, to generate more income for the forum to enable it to evolve and continue being the success it already is. The behaviour exhibited today will not encourage new members to join if they think on their opening post they will be treated in such a disturbing way, why on earth should a new member be treated as such? Why should any member be treated as such?
This post is not to castigate those involved but merely to point out that it is beyond the code of conduct here on the forum and will not be tolerated.
Every member here will treat others with respect, courtesy, manners and politeness regardless of their age, post count, length of time here or whatever else you use to gauge your responses. That is not to say harmless banter and mickey taking is not allowed, of course it is, banter between friends is how we generate the good natured feeling between members. Outright insults, sarcasm and pointless posts designed to stir things up are those which are not allowed.
If there is a bandwagon going around the place, think before you jump on it.
In future, those who seem to think they’re bit above everyone else and think they can treat other members with disdain and be downright rude, insulting, sarcastic and unpleasant will themselves be treated as such and unceremoniously kicked out, no matter how many posts they have or how long they’ve been here.
Todays society does not seem to promote civility, respect and tolerance for the people within it or for those who could be seen as outsiders. Treat people here in a manner with which you yourself would wish to be treated, if someone asks for help, offer it, if someone asks advice, give it but think about your response before you hit that submit button. If criticism is needed do it constructively. Encourage new members, don’t put them off, help and offer advice to those who ask for or need it, don’t dismiss them out of hand if they’re new. There is absolutely no need for the rudeness which has been creeping in slowly.
If you have nothing constructive, helpful or informative to say then don’t. Drop the egos and attitudes and learn to respect fellow members.
