This is the figurine stamped "Bastogne" on the bottom that my wife picked out for herself.

Her Father was wounded in the Battle of the Bulge.

The table next to me at the show sold Military Models (mostly German). I didn't know that so many people collected models. I'm not into models but these were really detailed and very well done. My wife even bought a small figurine from him. The dealer comes from the Chicago, IL. area.

The Minneapolis-St. Paul Military Relic and Weapon Collectors Show was last weekend so I took a few pictures to share with fellow collectors.

I only had one table at the show so it cut down on my display and I was also selling items and my book this year.

Bob

Dean,

How did your Military Show turn out? Any pictures?

The Security of the Fatherland Decoration was established August, 1985 and was awarded

to Government Officials, PAVN members and Security Personnel with more than 25 years of

service. It is only awarded in one class. The inscription on the bottom says "security of the Fatherland".

It is made of aluminum and the planchet is 1-3/4 in. from point to point.
