I think the one I have a problem understanding is the Bavarian one, as I dont know the statutes. It is possible to get a swordless HK with black ribboned cross... for instance a non combattant official in occupied Belgium.... But how does the bavarian fit?? -
Hi George, Sorry to say... but I hope you paid next to nothing for them ? :-( All th ebest Chris

I dont think you even had a pick a splinter, I think like the Bulgarian one you just had to send an application and a bit of money....

Its the first hungarian without swords i have seen... I may have seen them, but it is the first time I have noted one....

Sorry, I missed the last lot of photos, Nice and regular 1938 issued bayonet.

Hi, off the top of your heads... can anyone think of any well known people in Freikoprs Oberland? I think Sepp Dietrich in Sturmbataillon Teja?

Nice indeed! How did you turn this up??

He is careful to not say they are period WW2 boxes... and it does not say the crosses are included.... so technically he is in the green... but he relies on people "believing"

Very nice box indeed.... the men had a loooooong time to invest in their work... did some fine stuff indeed!
-
It was made as a large belt buckle, but the fittings at the back were removed...
-
Some more details... included is a Lighter, also POW work, but no details if Boer war, WW1 or WW2... My uncle got it from an old lady in South Africa and was told it was a POW item...
-
I took the liberty of merging my Napier stuff into Mervyns thread :-)

That is one bombastic group indeed ! Did you pick the pieces together, or get it all in one lot? I really like the photo of him in the police uniform with the EK ribbon.
-
Probably ran out of office guys to give them to ;-)

Here you go...

For those who dont collect German... this may be of interest anyway ;-) http://gmic.co.uk/index.php/topic/56658-fallschirmjgers-wallet/?p=524614

A wild guess but maybe a North Africa vet who was in Normandy? I dont know my British badges that well....
-
Spending decades in the wallet....
-
But what is waaaay more interesting is a rather scarce British badge that he chose to keep as a souvenier....
