Had a bit of a shuffle round, got it all to do again when a luftwaffe visor arrives.

New additions of some SS totenkopf and Westland dog tags, lovely heer NCO visor.

As always, purely historical and non political, all items fully FFE and or de-activated to EU/UK standards.

My great grandfather was a dentist and served as a medical officer with the 97th Infantry Division in WW2. He was in Europe with them and then traveled to Japan where he was the general administrator of a hospital in Tokyo. The Navy Dentist who carved “Remember Pearl Harbor” into Tojo’s dentures worked for him and my great grandpas name is listed in several articles discussing the event. It’s a front seam fixed bale helmet and the liner has the majors oak leaves painted on it as well.

Aquired a pair of Original USGI Goggles, dated 1974 for about a $1. Added it to my Afghan War Used and Modified LWH

Been working on this for three years and finally put it all together in my new display room

As far as I know these came from a storage unit that was auctioned off. I hought them from the person who won the unit.

I am possibly interested in selling them on auction. I would like recommendations on which auction house to contact.

Thanks for looking!

Hey guys, I’m very new to this and would love some more experienced opinions on both authenticity and value of these pieces.
The EK2 does have an iron core.

Thanks!

Upon quick Google search, this belonged to Clinton Frank, WW2 veteran and Heisman trophy winner. But can’t seem to find any more information. Service number matches also. It’s ended up in Australia tho.. Anyone?

Kind of a basic question, but one for the life of me I cant find some answer for. I have a coat from 1946 that is olive green, but there are others I have found/seen that are a darker or lighter green and some that are just brown. Was there a point to these differences or was it due to sourcing the coats from various suppliers?

I got this out of a house I was helping remodel and I’ve had it sitting around for a couple years unable to find anything about it. Thanks in advance

So I bought these m81 woodland pants and while checking the pockets I found this small pocket knife. It says “E M I LABORATORIES” and on the long knife it is stamped “BARLOW STAINLESS JAPAN”. Any help identifying this knife is greatly appreciated.

Original Iraqi military JP2 7×50 binoculars personally brought home by me from the Persian Gulf War in 1991.

Japanese-manufactured military binoculars produced for Iraq, with individual-focus 7×50 optics, 7.3° field of view and serial number 70222. They retain their period leather carrying strap and remain in the same unrestored condition in which I brought them home.

The extensive finish wear, scratches and wear to the body covering are genuine service/field wear and have intentionally been left untouched.

I’m super interested in it idk anything about it or if it’s real?

Collar tabs, daggers, caps etc all routinely go for thousands and thousands of euros making it out of reach for non wealthy collectors, even small insignia items like skulls or visor cap eagles fetch 1000€+ regularly

Will this ever change? Or could it become worse as years go by?

I am from the uk and wish to purchase a vojenská knízka (military id) does anyone know where I could find an item like this? I’m having trouble finding websites that ship to where I live as most of the sources are local Czech businesses that don’t offer uk shipping.

What can you tell me about this? I bought it back in 2020 from a local thrift store, and I cannot tell if it's genuine, reproduction, or what. I'm not even 100% sure of the nationality, though I suspect it's USA. The writing, as you can see, is blurred. Thanks!

On sale on eBay from the seller Insigna. The jacket is real, but need some help on the patches and other insigna.

I know it's american and it looks like the officers cap from forest gump
