    1. Hate to say it, but those are some scary reproductions... how do you spot these? What is the red flag that gives them away as reproductions?
    2. Yes. I like it too. Does anyone have a gilted brass fake to show as a comparison?
    3. I dont think that they are really faking those, are they? I take it that the paint is not original period to it?
    4. It looks original to me. Where did you dig that one up?
    5. it looks like they have a lot of "Just for Men" hair dye!
    6. It looks as if it is missing an E in the last name.
    7. Hi Morten, That is a great looking photo. Do you know who took it(German or Norwegian)?
    8. There is nothing little about this collection. You have some items I have never seen before. Thank you for sharing.
    9. This very issue was what brought me into my LW collecting focus of Admin and Beamte. Despite their overwhelming rarity and very interesting career fields(Such as test pilots, LW Secret Police, and etc), there was not really a market for LW Beamte. I was able to find some super rare and cool treasures for a fraction of the cost of a common flight piped tunic.
    10. I have been very busy at work. but I will make time to create photos of mine for the discussion. I am sorry to take so long to post them. Paul
    11. Thank you very much. It seems as if it served much of the war as a training unit. The uniform has the War Service and Indian Theater medals only.
    12. Thanks John. It looks like I was being a little paranoid then. The one I have seems to have a bit more sharpness in the details. Perhaps it was just a well worn die that made this one. John's word is one that I would trust any day.
    13. What class is on this bar? Did NCOs ever receive this award? Were subsequent awardings(upgrades due to rank) worn with the lower grade, or did the higher grade completely replace the lower?
    14. I like the wear on the ribbon and all, but I am trying to understand what you are referring to about it being for sale in Canada. What are Canada specials?
    15. Hello, I have a British uniform coming in with the patch below. I know that the Major was in India for the entirety of World War II. What unit does this insignia represent? Regards Paul
    16. Wow. OK. So this is a replacement for that. I would love to get my hands on some of those orders. The only Federation Medal I have is a number Lifesaving Medal.
    17. Are you all saying that this bar is put together?
    18. It could be OK, but the details are not what I am used to seeing. I would love to have the input of additional members as well. Maybe I am being too selective?
    19. I thought that the Combat Merit Medal continued into the Federal era.
