    1. I have never seen an official UN medal that is enamelled like that. It looks unoffical to me, but I am not an expert on UN medals.
    2. Were these women automatically awarded the DRK or Social Welfare Service Medal at some point? I am suprised that she does not have one of these.
    3. That is an amazing find. I feel bad for the folks that survived the crash just to succumb while adrift.
    4. This is the first DRK book I have seen. You have one heck of a piece of history there. Very unique. I did not see any awards listed for all of that service. Did I miss something?
    5. Very nice!! Thank you for the detailed explanation. I will take a look at the helmet today and post some images on another thread. Regarding the visor cap, I figured that it would not be an easy item to find. Never hurts to ask! :-) I look forward to seeing your uniforms!
    6. Thanks Brian. It may be well worth getting. Interesting topic. I had no idea that Ed wrote reference books for collectors.
    7. It is a great book. What is the award listed under the Sudatenland Medal?
    8. I am surprised to see the 1st Lt with more campaign awards that the rest. Possible prior enlisted or NCO?
    9. Very impressive collection of headgear. I look forward to seeing your future updates! What does a mint standard broadie go for these days? I have had one in my collection for the past 30 years and have no idea what they fetch. Also, is there a way to figure out the date of manufactor and whether it was British, Canadian, Austrailian, or etc?
    10. A nice Soldbuch with all of the bells and whistles. Where was there a reference to him being in Adminstration? Are you talking about the RLM connection? Paul
    11. What is the rank of the officer with the three cuff stripes? I cannot see the pips because his arms are crossed. I am assuming that he is a Major?
    12. Great collection! Thank you for sharing it. The do like how colorful the ribbons are. Are there any english language publications on these awards?
    13. This is a top notch grouping. Threads like this make me want to start collecting British as a focus. Nice touch with the history.
    14. Is it still operable or all of the moving parts frozen?
    15. They have been really cranking them out lately. Thanks for sharing Frank.
    16. Here is the latest set up, complete with a newly found overseas hat. Super rare, but the seller had no idea what it was so its price was VERY low.
