Tube packs and Hold alls

Hello, 1191409
1191410
1191411

Hello, I was reading observations from American and British observers of the Russo Japanese war and they state that IJA soldiers were issued a blue cloth hold all, (when the Japanese expected combat they would drop tornisters and stuff rations and ammo into the hold all. I believe the sketches are from the British observers. Would perplexes me is that the sketch depicting how the thing was worn also seems to depict a second one over the other shoulder and securing the entrenching tool. None of the observers seemed to mention it (though I may have been less than thorough in my reading). Interestingly the Ukiyo - e of the battle of Nanshan depicts most of the IJA soldiers with the dual hold all arrangement. Does anyone know if this was standard issue and whether IJA soldiers dropped their tornisters for khaki tube packs (while the blue ones were reserved specifically for the attack?).

Thanks,

Chris

Need help! Heer Artillery Officer’s Tunic

This Heer Artillery Tunic just got listed on The Collector’s Guild today. I really love the look of these tunics and am considering purchasing it. It looks like a real nice example in my opinion but I always like to get these checked out as I know the market is flooded with fakes. It looks great to me but all opinions are always much appreciated! cool militaria

The first Stahlhelm I ever held.

I had put this up on WAF, but figured it might be worth a cut and paste over here.

Story time.
As a little kid, one of the favorite pastimes of our neighborhood cohort was "playing army". We’d dress up in our father’s fatigues and webgear and grab our plastic rifles and machine guns, divide into teams, and run around the fields and woods playing war. Movies like Kelly’s Heroes, the Guns of Navarone, The Great Escape, etc. fueled our imaginations.

Well, one of the kids lived with his grandparents in our neighborhood and the grandfather was a WWII ETO veteran. One day he shows up with a "German helmet" that his grandfather brought back. We oooh’d and aaah’d over it and then decided the "enemy" team had to make one of their members wear it. Only later in life would I know how to correctly describe it. It’s a no-decal M40 reissue with a 1944 dated liner band and thick dark gray reissue paint. It’s stamped ET64 and the lot number is lost under the thick reissue paint. The liner was already long gone and the kid who got stuck wearing it had to wear a knit cap underneath to avoid a headache. That wasn’t a problem as "playing army" was more often a winter distraction for us while on hiatus from sports.

We wore this thing for a couple years through many a battle with no thought that it could be valuable. Heck, the kid said he’d found it in the attic above his grandfather’s garage. But this helmet opened my eyes to the concept of G.I. bring backs. It really sparked in my young mind the idea that this stuff was out there and later I resolved to collect some of it. It’s not too much of an overstatement to say this helmet is at least partly responsible for me becoming a collector.

Well, after grade school we stopped "playing army" and around early high school time the kid with the helmet and I went our separate ways in life. That was a nice way of putting it. Later I heard he’d died of a drug overdose as a young man.

Fast forward to years later. I’m already a collector and I’ve bought some helmets among many other items, but I still vividly remember this helmet that I’d played with as a kid. I’m home from college for Christmas break and I decide to make a run down to a coin shop in town because I knew they did militaria on the side. I walk in there and I see this helmet, the helmet from my childhood war games, sitting on the shelf along with a few others. I recognized it even up on the shelf. It was like a small electric current went through my body. Trying to really play it cool, I ask to see a couple items out of a display case first before casually asking them to pull the helmet down from the shelf. I turned it over in my hands…. this is it… this is the one! I knew 100% from the dents that as kids we imagined were WWII battle scars, but more likely some family member or even the grandfather himself had taken it out to the family farm and tried their .22 rifle out on it. Still playing it cool I reveal no prior connection to the helmet and negotiate the best price I can. In fact I bought a 1916 WWI trench helmet along with the M40 to disguise my particular interest and get a discount for buying both! This helmet had vanished from my life once, I wasn’t going to let it get away again. I was quite the happy camper to bring it home that day.

It’s not a very valuable piece as far as TR combat helmets go, but it means something to me. 11913621191363119136411913651191366

This bayonet is in a collection I inherited and I’m wanting to learn as much about the piece as I can. Any information on authenticity and history would be welcomed. I have some questions on the originality of scabbard and knot.
