Hello, I am wondering who is putting out the highest quality SS Officer's tunic these days. I am looking to put together an M-36 SS Hauptsturmfuhrer's rank KZL Camp Officer's tunic with Totenkopf Collar tab and the proper Copper-Brown on top of black shoulder boards. Thank you for any assistance! Picture attached for reference. Vince

Thanks for the info!

Hello & Happy Holidays to everyone, Can anyone please identify these wings for me. Thank you, Vince

Here's a small one!

For your viewing pleasure a nice WW1/2 Political medal bar.

Greetings, I am attempting to reunite a RGSM with its original owner! I have been asked by the awardee, Mr. Winston Pullin to try to locate his missing Rhodesian General Service Medal. It went missing from his home sometime during 1994 and has not been seen since. It's rim markings should show: "4246 TPR. PULLIN WS". Our collecting community is a small one and I pray someone may have it in their collection. A reward has been offered for its safe return. Please help me in this most worthy search to reunite the medal with it's owner while he is still alive to enjoy it! Many thanks, Vince Leone vincentaleone@gmail.com

Thanks to all!

Thank you for the information! Best to all! Vince

Happy 2020 to all! Can you please assist me identify these 2 medals. I believe they may be from Africa but can't locate anything on them. Many thanks, Vince

Yes, It's the actual circular part that holds the answer. The Rhodesian is all polished with no stippled center. I think the Australians use this style but do the British?

Greetings to all, My question is what country used this style of buckle? British, Australian? Happy Holidays, Vince

Hello All, I hope this short note finds everyone in good health and spirits. I am trying to find some ribbons for several South African medals I have. I would appreciate any help or guidance in acquiring them. Neither the OMRS or OMSA ribbon banks have them. Happy Holidays, Vince

Just found the exact same vest but solid green in color on BoB current bid is R6000!

Just curious, Has anyone ever seen a vest like this before? Thanks, Vince

Very cool! Cheers & Happy Hunting!

Hello & thank you! I just purchased that book and found that same reference last night! I have seen some photos with it applied during the war but very few. Thanks again!

I was thinking about it and the only thing I can come up with is that this is a pouch to hold 4- M-127A1 Parachute Signal/Illumination Flares. Anyone else???

I brought this home from Afghanistan with a lot of other Aussie field gear I traded for but do not remember what it was used for? Any Aussie field gear experts out there? Each of the 4 pouches measures closed flap - 13" x 2.5" x 2.5" and each pocket is 7" deep, its not for AR or AUG mags! Any help appreciated. Cheers

Greetings Gentlemen, Does anyone know when the USMC started stenciling the EGA on their helmet covers? Was this done in WW2 or later. Attached is a photo of my Father's issued USMC helmet cover. He served 1957-60. Thank you for any info & Semper Fi! Vince

Thanks for the input. Can anyone post an order of precedence chart for Japanese medals? Thank you!

Thank you!

Not the answer I was looking for. Just a medal precedence question. Thanks!

Hello again, Are these medals in the correct order of precedence on this medal bar? Is there a chart somewhere which shows the correct placement order for Japanese medals on their medal bars? Thanks, Vince

Hello to all, I recently acquired this OST on a medal bar and am not familiar with the reverse attachment screws found on the 3 & 9 o'clock arms. Can this Order be dated from these screws? Thank you, Vince

Many thanks for your expert advice. Japanese orders are new to me and I would really like to limit my mistakes as these can be expensive. Do you sell such orders and medals? If not can you please recommend a reliable dealer. Thank you again, Vince
