WW2 German Donations Can

The German female Hitler Youth counterpart, the Bund Deutscher Mädel, League of German Girls, was tasked with many activities to improve themselves for Nazi Germany. One of them was to collect donations from the German people to help improve the lives of those in need. This can is one example of many different kinds.

World War 2 German Fuze Container
มุมมอง 1508 หลายเดือนก่อน
Artillery can be dangerous if not properly handled, therefore it is important to transport the fuze that would help detonate the bomb in a separate compartment. Therefore, these little containers were used. This example is a World War 2 German fuze container for photoflash bombs. These bombs were used to illuminate the ground during nighttime flying to take clear photos of possible targets. The...

During World War 2, India was allowed to continue to embrace their various cultures and religions by continuing to wear their unique headgear.

As you may notice, I talk a lot while talking about helmets. So I hope you enjoy!
The U.S. M1878/04 Haversack, A Closer Look
มุมมอง 5909 หลายเดือนก่อน
Let's take a quick look at what the United States was using prior to the well known M1910 haversack. The M1878/04 haversack was used from 1878 all the way to the First World War in some capacity. These were of simple yet effective design and are an awesome item of US history. All of these bag are not well over 100 years old but still display nicely and come with plenty of history.

    Thanks for the information, i have a weird one that has the date on the outside that says ST. CLON. G. CO. i dont know if it says CLON for sure i cant make it out. But i think the date on it is either 1913 or 1943 and it is the slimmer khaki version.

    The Grade 1 you have available, does it have rings or hooks on the back? I need one with rings since I somehow acquired the leather strap for one of these, unfortunately it only has one of the brass hooks, I doubt I'll find another so I'll probably have to make one somehow.

    Fun fact, the 56 dated Bundeswehr messtin i own (a mix of gray and olive green, defently not NVA) is basicly identical to the Wehrmacht one, the hook is still held on with friction, no holds no indent to keep it in place and the "handle" mounts are identical too... Your post war probably looks different because its from 2007 and not almost 70 years old XD (yes even femboys can be collectors ^^)

    something that might be interesting if he was someone special back then (but i don´t know about that), i have around 10-12 post cards from 1934-36 from my great grand uncle who was in the reichswehr from 34-35, joined the Wehrmacht as a gefreiter in 35 and went to the Officers school in late 36 and bacame a officer in 37, he later fought in Poland France and in 42 even in leningrad, russia... in the rank of a Oberst! now i understand why my grandfather and father are dissapointed in me for the way i am... (i mean i had two SS Great grand fathers, and my father and grandpa are both " a little" right winged.... so that could also be a reason...) some of those postcards have Germania on them, some Hitler and some have, i think Hindenburg on them if i remember correctly, i doubt it was a Kaiser, but i am not sure if it was Hindenburg... my grandmother wants to gift them and some other pictures and documents to me for christmas (i am 17... well i suppose better than nothing) so i will maybe correct the comment if i was wrong ^^

    В Афганистане использовали больше СШ 68, более позднюю модель. Однако СШ 60 имеет, на мой взгляд, наиболее эстетичный и красивый вид, чем остальные советские шлемы. Удачная модель. Имеются также шлемы СШ-60Н "Заготовка", произведенные в 90-е годы для Министерства Внутренних Дел. У таких шлемов, как и у СШ-68Н "Заготовка", внутренняя часть шлема обклеена арамидом, и заменено подтулейное устройство (линер). Собственно говоря, должны были модифицироваться СШ-68, но кто-то прислал со склада , по ошибке, в том числе, и партию шлемов СШ-60. Производителей это не смутило, и они модифицировали СШ-60. Спасибо этому путанику, так как в мире появилась новая модель шлема. Мне посчастливилось недавно приобрести СШ-60Н в хорошем состоянии. Шнуры на линере шлема СШ 60 и СШ 68 позволяют хорошо регулировать его размер на голове.
