    1. I didn't realized what I wrote ... ha ha ha ... oh that is too funny. v/r DN
    2. Moderator. I posted this post in the wrong section. Please move it to the appropriate section. Thank you. DN
    3. Greetings to All, I was told that this is a fuse used by the OSS or by the partisan. The fuse is clipped on to a train track and when the train runs over the circular gray dome, the fuse will ignite/detonate the explosive. The box above is the container for the fuses. v/r DN
    4. DJ, Thank you for the explanation. That was also explained to me but I forgot post it. v/r DN
    5. Greetings to ALL, A friend recently purchased some OSS related items. Here is a capsule ... well you can guess where it goes. Measure approximately 7 cm long. v/ DN
    6. OK, Here is the back side photo. There are no markings on the die. v/r DN
    7. Moderator, Sorry, this is an area of interest that I am not familiar with so you can move my posting and photos to the appropriate area. Again, these items belong to a collector who like to remain private. He has given me permission to post photos of the items that you are seeing. None of the items are for sale and I don't know the story behind them. They are made from very good quality steel and are very heavy. I will post more photos of such items shortly. v/r DN

The die used to make the hat badge is on the shelf to the right side of the photo. These dies don't have any sort of maker marks/stamp on them. Made from very good quality steel and are really heavy. v/r DN
    9. OK, Will be posting more items similar to this shortly. And till then, enjoy the photos of Admiral Dornitz uniform .... oh I am not kidding; it is Dornitz's. v/r DN

    11. Hello DJ, Will be posting the back side to the badge and the die shortly. Will also post other photos of other similar items he has. v/r DN
    12. Hello Norm, My apologies. I do not know enough about the manufacturing process to make any comments. This gentleman has others items similar to this. They don't seem to be damaged; then again, I would not know what to look for. I find it fascinating that we collect all these badges and really never see the items used in the manufacturing process. I just wanted to share the photo with members of the forum. v/r DN
    13. Hello DJ, Sorry I do not have any photos of the back of these items. They are not mine and I did not want to risk damaging them. He was kind enough to let me take some photos and I did not want to press my luck moving items that I can't afford. It would be my bad luck to drop that chunk of steel. If I meet him again, I will ask his permission to take more detailed photos. v/r DN

    15. Hello Norm, Please pardon me for not sharing the story behind this. The item is rather unique and I just wanted to share this photo with members of this forum. v/r DN
    16. Greetings. My interest is mostly in WWII Soviet item. However, I do appreciate one of a kind item and would like to share something seen recently. The items do not belong to me and they are not for sale. For your viewing pleasure. v/r DN

    18. No I don't think so because a few of these officers that I've researched survived the war and was repatriated back to the UK. I used the term "missing" because the RFC Report on Casualties to Personnel and Machines (When Flying) stated: Pilot left Aerodrome 7.15.pm. 12.7.17. Not since been heard of. This report was for LT Harold Morgan Lewis. Dat Nguyen
    19. I've paid a few bucks to have a few of these officers researched... Lt Lewis was flying a Nieuport Scout No. BL625 type 23 on Offensive Patrol when he went missing on July 12, 1917. I think that LT Strickland was a observer/gunner(?) on another plane when he went missing. I would realy like to find any of these officers relatives because I think that they would appreciate these items much more than me. Dat Nguyen
    20. The badges in photos 1-3 were attached to a German field postcard. The German Officer name was blackened out but it is still barely legible. 5 of 5 v/r Dat Nguyen
