I looked for a medal card for him but could not find one, he should have got the Kings war badge. Below are 3 more images. 1st a Freemasons Membership Register for the Calabar Lodge dated 1921. 2nd an outward passenger list from Ireland, destination port Montreal Canada on the ship Letitla dated 12 May 1933. 3rd an incoming Passenger list from Africa to Liverpool arrived 26 Feb 1924 on the ship Zaria. ( 5th row down ).

Many thanks, I wonder if he were entitled to the Kings War Badge for the disabled and the War Medal? My aunt did mention that he had medals of some sort, but we never found any.

Hello Gildwiller1918, I would be very grateful if you could advise where I may have sight of a 1936 NSKK magazine which lists the Winterprozeug of 1936. I currently have a camera (a Leica) given as a prize to a competitor of that winter event. best regards ken Ainsworth

Picked up another M1917 Helmet shell, this one is marked ZE33. No texture or much of the original paint left. I have primed it for a new paint job and texturing.- 382 replies

WW1 Era M95 Mosin Nagant Revolver
72 usmc replied to Gildwiller1918's topic in De-activated and Antique Guns, Munitions and Fuzes
From my old notes, I forgot about these sources. https://chuckhawks.com/nagant_revolver.htm A really interesting video on ammo and gas seal. Worst trigger pull on a revolver that I ever encountered! Cartridges really stick in the cylinder of the rebuilt weapons. Not so much on bring backs in original condition. Really slow to reload in combat. A nice documented bring back; https://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/342635-russian-nagant-m1895-revolver-bringback/ Take Down: -

Hi everyone, here are some pieces of german equipment from my collection: -1914 early style 98/05 bayonet with a steel scabbard -1917 late style 98/05 bayonet with steel scabbard -ersatz bayonet and scabbard, still with original paint -hebel flare gun, completely matching numbers -pioneer wire cutters -dogtag set (posted them before separately) -prussian belt with belt buckle (+ an extra belt buckle) -1915 bread bag with nice markings, initals and a name -1915 cavalry or artillery ammo pouch -egg grenade with inert fuse -telegraph/communication unit headphones -mg08 and mg08/15 ammo belt with inert rounds I'd like to get a complete set of original equipment, but I still need quite a few pieces (bayonet frog, backpack, zeltbahn, messtin, canteen, infantry ammo pouches, shovel,...) It will probably take quite a while, but it'll be worth it.

The young woman caught in the crossfire was Katharina Esser. She was buried in an unnamed grave. Nearly 70 years later, her identity was confirmed and a grave marker was made. https://edition.cnn.com/2018/11/10/us/ww2-reunion-us-german-veterans/index.html Quelle: CN live_0863e072-b90d-424d-8287-c25e6175532f.avif

The stamp on the dome interior is ingot smelting lot number provided by the steel mill, this was done so if there were defective helmets in the batch they could be tracked down and recalled.
