Again in need of help with my latest find.
Found this 19th century manuscript made apparently by a young officer.
For as far as I can see they are translations of different time publications.
All is done in handwritting and lots of very well drawn illustrations.
Must have been a hell of a job.
He also left blanc pages in order to complete on a later date…
He’s name was S B Ortt, don’t know yet what the "S B" stands for.
But I did find (in local newspapers) that he was a young officer(adelborst 1 klasse) 1873 and sailed with a gouvernemental ship (sort of war ships in the Dutch colony’s)named "Boni".
He was relieved of duties a year later, for reasons I could figure out up to now…did he was like a one year volunteer, did he got injuried or sick???
So if you know something I gladely take any info.

I posted it on several Dutch militaria fora, but got more help on the French fora….:(:confused:

Hello

I posted this a long time ago, and no one could identify the insignia. Thought I would give it another go. Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thank you

I thought this beret was interesting having the original officers badge and backing, though I don’t know more about its significance to battalion, the maker is the oldest hat makers in the world, still going today, I presume its ww2 period has the nipple and weave pattern to the top

Cheers everyone,

I recently acquired this helmet out of the storage unit of a collector. It has obviously been repainted post 1945, but the shell appears to be original to me. The lot number and maker mark matches up to known original examples. I’m not too sure about the liner, but it looks good to me. If anyone has any opinions on the helmet it would be much appreciated.

Cheers, Warbuff
