This interview was recorded on Wednesday , 23rd April 2015. It was done in Hamburg , Germany and the person whom I interviewed was , Kurt Schmidt. And how I got to know him was though his granddaughter who is one of my good friend, Anna Lina.

He held the rank of SS Sturmann in 1941 and rose up all the way to SS Oberscharführer in 1944 until he was captured by the Russians in Berlin. His commander at that time was SS Brigadeführer Wilhelm Mohnke. And his unit was the premier fighting unit of Germany , The Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler - 1st SS Panzer Division Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler - Wikipedia

My previous meetings with veterans were members of the Kriegsmarine who were part of the Monsun Uboot submarine group , The Monsun U-Boats – WW2 German Submarines In Asia As a side note - How I met her granddaughter was very amusing !! While at a party in Singapore, a good German friend of mine introduced me to another German woman who married an Indonesian and living in Bali. We met again for my birthday dinner at Canggu Beach, Bali after a good surfing session and she found out about my interest in history. Later, a couple of weeks when she was back for a short holiday , she phoned me and told me that her Opa, grandfather was a soldier too , and was a member of the Leibstandarte. She didnt know what this means until I gave her a brief introduction and my interest. She was really surprised and very proud of her Opa …. By the way, even though hes turning 95, he is smart enough to use skype via the iphone 6+ to speak with his granddaughter !!

Looking for all relevant info & items on WW2 German U-boats in Singapore and Asia for my research.

These are special purpose made for the USMC, specifically for the M1 carbine. The belts were special purpose with snap catches installed on the belt to hold 5 US carbine snap mounted M1 carbine pouches for additional ammunition during the island hopping campaign. I am sharing sine they are not often seen and may be educational. All opinions are welcome.

I picked up as an impulse buy hoping it is WWII era for a display item. I think it is a private purchase tobacco tin. There is a internal piece separating leaving about 1/3 and 2/3 space inside of the tin top to bottom, not side to side. Both the top and bottom slide off the end. The The character looks more Chinese than Japanese to me. All opinions are appreciated. Thank you.

Quick question–I’ve just returned home from a military show and in my quest
to find some Commando or Airborne related gear for a photo shoot,
I found a nice condition late war leather Jerkin.

Is a leather Jerkin something that would have been worn by Commando
troops?
