Nice helemt. So you have any vet info? Who he served with where he served and info surrounding the finding of the helmet. Pete

Sorry Jos but thats not possible, as after seeking more detailed opinions. There was enough doubt re- the piping the tress and general quality of the of the boards. Coupled with a few other issues so I did not conclude the deal. It has since been sold to somebody else. Pete

H What is it about the boards that are a problem. Could someone pm me if its not appropriate to highlight the faults openly due to fakers watching.Pete

Two more pics its used but not abused.

Hi all here are a few pics of a HG tunic I have just purchaced. I am not a uniform guy but it looks good to me, all original and not a bits put together. Sadly the cufftitle has been removed but you can see how the tunic has been sun bleached. Now I am aware that many Luft tunics are enhanced so to speak.Insignia and ink stamps ect. The ink stamps seem to say 2nd Panzer grenedier regiment 1HG.and the boards are nco PG boards. Heres some pics.I hope you like it, thank you. Pete

Thank you Rick. So the V/J award and pic match. So am I right in thinking it is a legitimate group? Re- the pic here is a bigger view.It is the black lines around the image. Thanks Pete

Hello all. I have been after a unnumbered BM and Combat service medal to complete two researched groupings I have. Anyway I noticed this on ebay with a few minutes left so I bid $40 and I won it. It has a Combat service medal and a V/japan with it came the award booklet and a picture which is old but It has those black lines so its an image of a photograph albeit old ? the name on the back in freehand seems the same as the booklet. The medals on the picture are a V/Japan, but is the other a Combat service medal? Both medals have new looking ally suspensions. Anyone know his name or read the name on his cap? Do you believe its a low end put together.Any and all comments welcome please cheers. Pete

Love the glory groups. If you knew who the researcher was? Would there be a chance he could have a copy of the research saved? Pete

Cheers Takc I am going to pass, that is interesting re-the r and not g. The seller has another and a SSH36 all with same replaced liner so I am a little suspicious. Pete

Hello all and some old friends I see in this section. What do you think of this helmet SSH39 seller says liner is wartime replaced but there is metal exposure at the back rivet looks recent as there seems no oxidistation? If its period even though replaced I might be interested in purchace. The seller wants $400 is that a ok price if all is period. Pete

Why would it be downgraded? from a ORS to a Glory111. And slightly off topic is that the clock tower you can see in red square? I like the loop pic Gerd. Pete

congratulations Pete

Hi all I have two single awards that I am thinking of getting reasearch on. One is a ORS with 247,+++ serial Number and the other is a Glory111 with a serial number 262,+++ . With them being earlier numbered esp the ORS can you edge your bets and say if it was a bravery or a long service award. I know ultimatley you have to wait and see.Any thoughts would be welcome. Pete
