    1. Hi, Yes ! Here are some relics, found on French's Battlefields. I like these small items. Stephan
    2. Hi Cnock, Sorry, I don't know but it doesn't seems to be. In the historie of the 204 JD, Saint Eloi is not mentionned : Here is a weblink Stephan
    3. Hi, Very interesting post Here are three markings on 98. Grenadier Regiment K?nigin Olga : Another W?rttemberg marking : Reserve JR 121 Colbergsches-Grenadier-Regiment Graf Gneisenau (2. Pommersches) Nr.9 unfortunately not in good conditions : Stephan
    4. Hi all, There is a lot of variants in saxon buckles. Here is a late war variant I've just acquired (dated 1918) : Made by Robert Ehrhardt, Zw?nitz Stephan
    5. Hi Rob, No, it's not a 40 mm. The size of this one is : 47 x 65 mm. Thanks for your answer. Steph
    6. Hi, It's a M95. It was on used during 1895-1915. Regards, Stephan
    7. Hi, It seems to be original. Do you have the size of this buckle ? Stephan
    8. Hi, Thanks for your comment. It's a known saxon variant (probably for the period 1867-1895) but unfortunately, I don't have any idea for the maker. Stephan
    9. Hi, Here are two of my new items. First, a Saxon buckle (M 1895) : And a W?rttemberg's one (also M 1895) : They have joined my Hessian buckle : Stephan
    10. Perhaps, but I don't think it's a regimental marking. Generally, there is a "JR" or "R" before or after numbers. Here, I don't know what it can be. Stephan
    11. Hi, Nice Helmet Is it complete, inside ? Is there a regimental marking ? Cheers. Stephan
    12. Thanks for your answer ! This alloy (Maillechort) is made of : copper, nickel and zinc. I know what is "Alpaka", and it seems to be the same thing. Stephan
    13. Hello, The JR 415 was part of the 204 Jnfanterie Division (during july-december 1916). In october-november, this Division was in the vicinity of Wytschaete near Messines at south of Ypres : "Stellungsk?mpfe im Wytschaetebogen (Flandern)". Best regards, Stephan
    14. Hi Chip, Very nice buckles, especially this one for the Leibgarde JR 115 ! Do you know the name of metal it is made ? In french, it is "Maillechort" but I don't know the word in english. Stephan
    15. I add a nice photo of the 2 GRzF : And shoulder boards : He was "Jahresklasse 1909" and he fought throughout the war (1916 Gefreiter, 1917 Unteroffizier, Februar 1918 Sergenten). Until 1917 he was in the 2 GRzF and then in the "Feld Rekrut Depot" of the 231 Jnfanterie Division. Here are extracts from his Milit?rpass : Stephan
    16. And the third one : And a general view (there was also the historic of the 2. GRzF - 1934) : Stephan
    17. Hi, Here are 3 badges for a same veteran in the Garde Korps (During the war, he was at the 2 GRzF). These badges are they "official" or only for a veteran association ? Do you know what is the signification of the numbers 25 and 50 (the years he spent in this association ?) By advance, thank a lot. The first badge : Stephan
    18. Hi all, Here is a nice M1895 Hessen Buckle which I have bought recently. Stephan
    19. Hi Duksis, Thanks for showing these nice dog tags I like especially thoses for the Minenwerfer Komp 408 ! This unit was part of the 205 Jnfanterie Division, created at the end of 1916 on the eastern front. Best regards Stephan
