Hi Jeff, Many many thanks! On the Banner, I think anyone there could be awarded one as as far as I know any work was considered labor as far as the DDR state was concerned... even working in the military, border guards, etc. But if someone has other info please post for the benefit and interest of all that are intro'd. It's a shame they didn't number their awards so research could be performed. We'll never know the story behind the vast majority of what's out there unless it comes with the original documents and such. But they're still nice to look at! Dan :cheers: -
RAF Badge:
Hauptmann replied to Hauptmann's topic in Great Britain: Militaria: Badges, Uniforms & Equipment
Hi Leigh, Many thanks for the info. How can I tell which one it is? Again it doesn't fit with my collection in general so I'd like to see it go to someone who can make better use of it. Dan :cheers: -

And last but not least: I'm going to have to count how many Banners der Arbeit I now have... quite a few I think... and this makes my third Border Guard medal in bronze as I'd just found one cased with the ribbon bar but I won't have pics of it till it arrives. This also means I have the bronze and silver Fatherland medal as well as a Civil Defense medal I didn't have before. And also what looks like another early Polizei medal on the end of the bar. But I think these still pale next to Grant's newest bar... I really love that one! Thanks for looking! Dan :cheers: -

Hi all, Some new additions in the medal bars department. After seeing Grant's newest bar I couldn't resist! All pics are the sellers (Paul - lastfrontline on Ebay) and used with his kind permission. So without further ado here we go: A small bar but with my favorite type DDR medal in the lead and one of my other favorites bringing up the rear. :jumping: -
Hi all, This is something I picked up recently and want to sell it to a good home. It's outside my area of interest. But I've no earthly idea what these would sell for? In fact I've no idea if it's a cap badge or what or even from what period. Would deeply appreciate any help and of course if anyone is intro'd please PM me and I'm sure we can work it out. Otherwise I'm happy to list it in the sales section but again I've no idea what a fair price would be. Many thanks! Dan :cheers:

Grant... another terrific find!!!! You ever want to let that bar go give me a nudge! And so glad you got the Police medal... do you like it as much as I thought you would? Here's hoping you'll continue to find tons more!!!! Dan :cheers: -
Soviet Translation request
Hauptmann replied to Hauptmann's topic in Russia: Soviet: Other Militaria
Many thanks Hardy! Deeply appreciate the help! One of these days I'll just have to learn Russian... Kim and Nick also are intro'd in doing so so guess I'll have to invest in Rosetta Stone or something. Dan :cheers: -

I've had this model for quite some time and wondered what the slogan is on the side of it? Full shot:
