Hi everyone, I did a bit of research on my first tinnie i just bought. It is a 10th Anniversary of the Weimar Party Rally July 1926-1936 (10 J?hrige Wiederkehr des Reichsparteitages Weimar 1926) by G.Danner of M?hlhausen, Th?ringen. It seems that there are actually 2 makers of this tinnie, the other being H.Wernstein. This can be seen in Ulric Of England's excellent book Deutschland Erwache. Is my assumption correct? Opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thank You. By G.Danner http://www.wehrmacht-awards.com/forums/sho...ighlight=Weimar Kai Winkler's Another Dealer's Cheers, Ibrahim, Singapore.

Hi Monsun, What a coincidence, you mentioning Lake Hakone... As you know im currently making a website about the Monsun U-Boats.And as part of the introduction, i'll be writing something about the Kriegsmarine in Japan. Please see here for more pics and a short summary about them http://www.singapore-ww2-militaria.com/mon...at_history.html As always i'll always be updating the webpage as time goes by, so please check it out BTW:- Gordon, i used one of your pic for that section i wrote ( ive watermarked it with your name), hope you are ok with it, else i'll remove it. Cheers, Ibrahim, Singapore.

Hi again Monsun, Very interesting information & pictures. Thank you for telling us these. One thing that i forgot to ask you before is , if you have encountered these commemorative medallion & badge. See picture below. Ive posted the medallion before but prehaps you might have overlooked it. http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=11197&hl=ibrahim Cheers, Ibrahim, Singapore.

Hi Everyone, Just wanted to inform everyone of my website update. This time with the help of my friend Mahandis from Indonesia we manage to get pictures of The German War Memorial - Arca Domas in Tjikopo/Cikopo 70km south of Jakarta,Indonesia. Buried there is the Monsun U-Boat, U-195 Cmdr.Friedrich Steinfeldt with several of his crewmen. http://www.singapore-ww2-militaria.com/arca_domas.html I'll be updating that page with more info & history about it soon. Upcoming updates to my web will be 1)The Tiger Club in Singapore where officers of the Monsun U-Boats had their R&R 2)The Kriegsmarine typewriter used to draft the proclamation of Indonesia's Independance. 3)OSS maps showing docking bay of Monsun U-Boats In Surabaya,Jakarta, Singapore & Penang. Cheers, Ibrahim, Singapore.

Sure Megan . No problem. Hopefully I'll complete my collection of enamel SAF unit badges by the end of my army reservist this october. Those babies look very cool...and i'll of course post it here once its done. Cheers, Ibrahim, Singapore

Thank you for helping me with the pictures Also , i have to say that you have an excellent website !! Keep it up. Cheers, Ibrahim, Singapore.

Hi everyone, I was from the Singapore Army for close to 3 years and i think its high time i show some of its militaria. Please click on the links below. If any of you guys can help me minimize the picture, i'll really appreciate it. 1)Shown below are the headgear metal insignia. http://www.singapore-ww2-militaria.com/ima...ction/SAF/1.jpg 2)Rank insignia. 1 http://www.singapore-ww2-militaria.com/ima...ction/SAF/2.jpg 3)Rank Insignia. 2 http://www.singapore-ww2-militaria.com/ima...ction/SAF/3.jpg 4)Qualification Badges. 1 http://www.singapore-ww2-militaria.com/ima...ction/SAF/4.jpg 5)Qualification Badges. 2 http://www.singapore-ww2-militaria.com/ima...ction/SAF/5.jpg 6)Orders & Decorations. http://www.singapore-ww2-militaria.com/ima...ction/SAF/6.jpg Cheers, Ibrahim, Singapore.

Saw your pics at the WAF & here too. Congratulations & Thank You for showing them!! Cheers, Ibrahim, Singapore.

Thank you for the info, Rick Research & also to you too Dave-B for the pics (im in multiple militaria forums with the same username, so hope that explains the d?j? vu) I would also like to point out that Wayne H Techet book on etched bayonets is an excellent starting point for a beginner like myself to see comparisons between a "reddick" blade and a pre-45 etched blade. Ive never met Rex Reddick but based on what i heard from fellow collectors, hes a nice person who sells his stuffs as it is, "reproductions". Its the unscrupulous buyers who buy and sell them as the real deal that we have to worry about. For me, as a beginner, reading & buying books , contacting well known dealers/authors such as Wittmann , Tom Johnson,etc, & getting info from various militaria forums before & after purchasing an item, are some of the steps that i do to be ahead of these reproductions. BTW:- Rex Reddick has also contributed to the collector community. Hes reprint of the Eickhorn Catalogs, Heinrich Doehle'Orden und Ehrenzeichen im Dritten Reich, etc... allows non german speaking guys like myself to learn more about Third Reich militaria. Thanks Rex! Cheers, Ibrahim, Singapore.

Hi everyone, Ive been reading several militaria forums and the word "Reddick" etched blades comes out occasionally. 1) Am i right to say that "Reddick" here means the person, Rex Reddick who reproduced the Eickhorn Catalogs? 2) By mentioning a "Reddick" etched blade, its a reproduction right? 3) Is this his current site? http://www.reddickmilitaria.com/index.php 4) If he indeed created reproduction etched blades, when did it all started and is he still in business? ( I checked the website but seems like there arent any etched blades ) 5) Could some of you guys post pictures of these "Reddick" etched blades so that us, beginner guys know what to look out for ? Really appreciate for any help given & Thank You. Cheers, Ibrahim, Singapore.

Hi everyone, I recently acquired this single etched bayonet by Robert Klass. Ive read Wayne H.Techet excellent book and its shown in page 232 with a value rating as - Scarce. However mine doesnt have the Klass logo. Really appreciate for any opinions given. Thank You.

Hi all, Ive been reading past posts in this forum and noticed that members mentioning an Atwood fake/reproduction of certain edged weapons. 3 questions to ask,;- 1) Does the name Atwood refer to Major James P. Atwood, the author of the book "The Daggers and Edged Weapons of Hitler's Germany"?? From what i read it is him. 2) How reliable is his reference book ?? 3) Whats the story behind these Atwood fakes ?? Really appreciate for any help given. Thank You. Cheers, Ibrahim, Singapore.

Hi Ed_Haynes, I collect both Singapore Army & Third Reich Militaria. I serve for close to 3 years in the army here and really want to show u guys some of the neat patches/medal(only got one) & docs i got. Plus a cool poster of all the Singapore regimental colors ,Plus ... pics of my service . but until i feel that i can present them in a fitting way as ive done above that will have to wait. BTW; From the tone of your statement i hope you dont think im biase or a Nazi nut. I collect Third Reich stuffs because of 2 things;- the excellent craftmanship & design plus the history behind it ( Im 80% complete in creating my website about the Monsun U-Boats in Singapore,Penang & Indonesia). I respect all militaria collectors rgardless of different collecting fields who are in this as a hobby and nothing whatsoever to do with politics. Hi Jim, Wish we could have met while you were in Singapore. For militaria collectors, market here is basically close to non existence. Though i know ocassionally they are sold in the flee markets here. All i know is that there are a total of 3 Third Reich collectors ; 2 Singapore Army collectors . Ive been to all the important WW2 museum here and taken pictures for my website especially British/ Japanese militaria... I'll inform u once my website is completely done. On another note i do know that in neighbouring Japan & especially China there are groups of guys who have the dough to buy really high end Third Reich stuffs!! Unfortunately because of the language barrier u dont see them in militaria forums though i do and have seen one chinese guy who posted his spectacular collection in the WAF forum. A jaw dropping collection.... Cheers, Ibrahim, Singapore.
