Hi again,

Here is an other ISA in bronze that I have seen on sale (I’m looking for a bronze ISA in order to display in the middle of my few ISA in silver). The dealer says it’s a S.H.u. Co. Sohni, I am tempted by it. Do you think it’s an original one?

thank you for your comments,

regards,

Pierre

Here my recent acquisition. To my opinion an attractive Fallschirmschutzen cloth badge. Obtained from an honest person I suppose.

It’s clearly a tunic removed piece, which I like the most. "A been there" piece. Personally I don’t like mint pieces which are not worn.

It’s a worn padded piece version. Please see also the images at the back.

QUESTIONS:

- possible to date this Fallschirmjager cloth badge with year(s) or a specific period during the war ?
- bought it as a textbook piece: how many different FJ cloth badge pieces are existing? Which specific model is this?
- possible to attributed this pieces to a specific cloth badge manufacturer?
- possible to ‘link’ this piece to the model of a zinc or Buntmetall Fallschirmschutzen Abzeichen?

Thanks for your possibly help, opinions and suggestions.

I post these images for study opportunities here.

New addition to my collection, when cleaning the muck of the shell a faint black camouflage cane through, also has once had a flash on the side that has been removed. I only bought it for the early net that came with it , so bit of a bonus buy.

Hello,

How can one locate, easily if possible, a file of an SS individual?
And another questions, how can one trace information of service of the same individual that appear in a book? I am searching information on Karl Heinrich Plath (born 1907 and died (?) 1980), looking for information when he was chef at Sinel’nikovo…

Thank you.
