    1. Were the stars on these made of solid gold as well?
    2. I do not know much about cuff titles(Maybe Gene or one of the true experts can pipe in), but I like the overall quality!
    3. Can you please make some larger/clearer scans or photos? There is something about the metal that looks odd... although it could be the lighting.
    4. Holy Sheet, man! Is this in your collection? I have never seen a piped one before!! Please tell all! :jumping:
    5. Very nice Lorenzo!! Now, I noticed that there are some Army shoulder boards without the red stripe. What does this mean? How do people advance without it?
    6. That is a beautiful example. He is most likely still alive and kicking(in his 30s still)... I wonder why he would part with it?
    7. Did sun helmets and these dress hats use the same insignia or were they different?
    8. Thanks for the wonderful presentation, Gordon. What is the Goldenes Ehrenzeichen F?r Verdienste um die Republik ?sterreich awarded for exactly? Achievement? Also, what is the rank on the tunic?
    9. Thanks Megan. I am just perplexed about the use of the hammer and sickle in the post Soviet version of the awards.
    10. Is this award officially verified anywhere?
    11. Close... but not a sun helmet!! Nice emblems for a Bersalgieri Dress Caps... http://www.germanmilitaria.com/OtherNation...os/C005460.html
    12. Whew!! Thank God this is all settled! Ed, Again, your collection never fails to astound me! WOW. I have never seen multiple mounting styles on a bar before!! The Russian/British bar is very well done! Who does that American WW1(and earlier) bar in the B/W photo belong to?
    13. Those are the very first WW2 Romanian bars I have seen!! Great stuff.
    14. I know that both of Saddam Hussein's sons held military ranks. Does anyone know exactly what their ranks were?
    15. Thanks for posting!! Please, let us see some closeups of your items!!
    16. Is this for real? Why would they make this particular variation(with the hammer and sickle)?
    17. [Welcome Elie!! That is one amazing ribbon bar. I bet it can be traced to a top ranking personality!
    18. Is ?75 too much for a fake bar? I tend to think that the price is WAY too high. I am sorry for the bad news.
    19. I am interested in knowing if these are the read deal!! Someone must have some experience with this type of insignia!
    20. Hi Lorenzo, Thank you for your words of experience. Are those Cabinet Level boards the real deal? I would love to find some of those! The set that I am getting for a Major General is real. There were brought back, with the beret and party pin in 2003. I can hardly wait to show you. Is the red stripe "velvet" like material? I will stay away from Trident, as I want the real pre 2003 items. Paul
    21. Hi! What does the habel represent? What do the colors mean?
