Does anyone have an opinion on this helmet? They all end up turning out to be fakes. This isn’t really my best area of knowledge.

Can anyone tell me why some tie knots have the cornflower blue line and some do not? Many period photos show a mixture. Any info greatly appreciated.

Hello guys,

I have this Feldpostbrief wich is written on 5. July 1943 by Soldat Willy Schiele. I don’t have questions about the translation, but more about the Soldat and his unit.
So far I know this:
Soldat W. Schiele served with the 3. Lichtmess Batterie leichte Beobachtung Abteilung 27.
This unit was transfered from the Ostfront to the West in 1944. Soldat Schiele’s Todesdatum is 24. June 1944 and he is buried at the Kriegsgräberstätte in Versaille.

What I would like to know is, what kind of unit was the 3. Lichtmess Batterie and what could the task of Soldat Schiele be? I have problems figuring this out and your help is very much appreciated.

Regards, Rik

Hi Guys,

I have just bought my first 57er EK II as part of my collection to aquire a time line of Iron Crosses.

This has a magnetic core and is of a three piece construction. Pity about the scratch on the back though.

Could anybody perhaps fill me in on some details as to who the manufacturer might be.

Thank you

This one comes straight vom Germany, the dagger has a great blade, fully mint with 100% crossgrain, i love it!
Golding on the swastika is still there, and it has the typically springly wire that Höller used on their second pattern lufts.
The hanger straps have lost their blue colour and turned to a shade of braun.
I had them before in the braun colour, but now i can explain it, underneath the clips the strap still got its blue colour!
It also has a little brother a Höster mini.
Enjoy the pics
