    1. Just kidding! ? My guess is that Hess is quiet a common German name.
    2. Not military to me...
    3. Hey, gosh!! ....Rudolf's helmet ....! ?? Thanks for your help. You are probably right.
    4. I will. Meanwhile does anybody have an idea what the name of the owner can be. "Heks" or something...??
    5. They are usually left as they are. Except adding a front plate, undo the rossette of that ugly paint. And upgrading the chinstrap, there will no happen much more to this guy.
    6. Indeed. But he is good now, and will recover. ?
    7. Hello all, found this little fellow in a house clearing. Apparently used to party during carnival at some point, due to the confetti found inside. And coming from a region where carnival is "hot", ....yes; Aalst! Nicely marked on the inside. For one with the Kriegs bekleidungsamt des (or der!?) Gardekorps.1915. And second with a name. To me it reads like "Heks", what do you think? And is there anything that can be found on Herr Heks when serving in the garde regiment?
    8. Masonic was also my thoughts. The medal I showed is the only one he has. All others are gone...
    9. It is possible, but the guy's are quiet familiar with those medals,and found nothing similar.
    10. I could ask on a French forum, I am member of. Bertrand Malvaux is a member there too....
    11. hello, for a colleague on a French forum I would like to ask you to ID this medal. It comes from a distant family member who can be found on; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Félix_du_Temple_de_la_Croix
    12. Thank you.
    13. from a house clearing; a flag and a painting. Between two war's.
    14. Among my latest, a medal commemorating the shooting of my home town. More then 140 zeppelin bombs and 4000 artillery shells where fired up on Antwerp
    15. I reworked the detail a bit. The last one looks familiar, but will check asap.
    16. Hey cazack this is of a great help! Thanks a lot. Much appreciated.
    17. Not yet, my fault. Much other stuff that need my attention for the moment...
    18. Thanks. It amazes me too, and makes me very curious as well, every time again.
    19. Out of the woodwork!! They have being sitting in a cellar for all these years, waiting for me to rescue them. It gives a old man like me that Indiana Jones feeling, you can hardly describe. The worse part was getting them to my place. It was dark when I got home and couldn't wait to make a pic...
    20. My pleasure. The answers given was quiet elaborated. I'll try to give you a translation asap
    21. Answer is given. Also; Good evening ladies and gentlemen, I think it is a captain's captain of the country railway sections (SCFC), in this case the 4th section. Created and organized before 1914, there are 10: 1st: P.L.M. (Paris-Lyon-Méditerranée) 2nd: P.L.M. 3rd: P.O. (Paris-Orléans) 4th: State 5th: North 6th: East 7th: Noon 8th: East, State and North 9th: State 10th: secondary railways. In 1917, an 11th section was formed by the 1st section: P.L.M. After the armistice, a 12th section will be formed by all the networks / sections, for the management and supervision of the service in Alsace-Lorraine.
