- Hello everyone!
It's been way too long since my last video, so i decided to put a couple of them together in 1 video!
First, i will show you a short metal detecting trip together with Potato Digger.
We Detected on a couple different locations, one of them was a former Waffen SS Firing Range!
Of course, i went to the Ciney Militaria Fair, i bought a couple things, but not too much because i'm trying saving my money..
I didn't had much time, so i couldn't film too much.. also some people got angry because i filmed the stuff they were selling.. mmm.. definitely something to hide there!
It's been 75 years since the south part of the Netherlands was liberated in 1944, so i took part in a reenactment and parade in Oirsbeek - Beekdaelen ( Netherlands )
It was an awesome day, keeping History alive is really important!
And i bought a really cool new camera.. you will see it in the video!
More content is coming, cleaning relics, metal detecting, magnet fishing, exploring etc etc! :)
For now, i really hope you enjoy this video!!

I get called nazi of my classmates just because of I like ww2 stuff. What should I do to make them stop?
They need to concentrate on more positive things. Take them to a camp or something.
I know exactly how you feel. They call me obsessed with war and nazi and other stuff but just use something against them or call them names they don't like. I think they'll get the message xd
They can't Brow Beat you down and make you stop enjoying your hobbies, they will stop after they see that their words have no power over you. Don't give them any reaction to feed off of.
I don't know how severe you're bullying is but if there is a way for you to show that you have knowledge about a wide range of World War 2 topics aside from Germany then that should do it.
But then again kids aren't reasonable.
@@JumpinJoe I don't think he should prove himself to anybody. They are going to think what they want to thank and there's no such thing as winning an argument with idiots. He may as well just stop talking about it.
Guys are in paradise with that fair... Huge... Unbelievable... Congrats for the video and your collection.
Imagine just finding a bomb and then it starts ticking

“HANS, GET THE FUCK OUT OF THERE!”
Hahahahha so funny
Amagin in that situation you didint have a swiss army nife.
Just run 😂 run as far as you can
ZEY ARE IN ZE GROUND.
Hey Nick!
It was an amazing day, I had great fun! The camera is something you’re going to have a love-hate relationship with, I have the same with mine.
I can’t thank you enough for the amazing Sunday and I’m looking forward to seeing you again next Friday and Saturday! (I’ll promise to bring the chocolate)
Cheers!
It really was indeed! :D
Haha, yes.. i think i know how it works now.. sort of!
I also can't wait for the next reenactment.. too bad i can't go on Friday.. only Saturday.. but i'm sure it's gonna be awesome again!!
I know where to go if i get shot, that's for sure! ;)
Mmm, Nice, real WWII Chocolate! :)
See you soon at the frontline!
Gr Nick
That fair is definitely on my bucket list now!!! I would be like a kid on Christmas
What do u do for work? Collecting ww2 stuff is expensive

I get called a Nazi by people IRL and online because I really like history, don't know what to do to stop it.
Say no u
@Eli Stephen I really think that's an overused phrase

Fantastic reenactment!
I am so jealous of these sort of military fairs because in my country they rarely happen and they are usually very small.
Keep up the good work!
Thank you for watching! :)
God, I'm actually jealous you live in Europe, they seem to have so much memorials, reenactments, and just mainly World War II stuff around the times of the battles, now yes... I'm 11 so if there is any reenactments here in America, I can't reenact. So, I'm just plain jealous, that you live, what? In the Netherlands or something? I'm just jealous. Anyways, thank you for making these videos! I enjoy them a lot!
There is Rockford Illinois.
Come to France, we have something called "Vide greniers" which is were a bunch of people go to some town and just sell stuff. A lot of people don't know what they actually have and sell iit for a super low price.
The actual age you can reenact is 12-13. And there is one in Northern Ohio!
Yeah the Rockford ones look awesome. I really want to be in one but I’m 14 and live in Washington
Hey Nick, my Friend 🤗
Nice Video again. Everything, anyone needs... Metal Detecting, reenactment and ww2 stuff to buy... 👌🏻😁
Wish you always the best and always nice Findings,
Ingo 🤗
Thank you very much, glad you liked it my friend!! :)
Excellent video. I lived in Jabeek, NL, for 9 years and Einighausen, NL, for another 6 years. I miss going to Ciney and La Gleize militaria shows. This video brought back many great memories. Thanks!
I wish we had huge military fairs like that where I live, I mean I have gun shows but this seems so much cooler
Same
Then go to the SOS in Louisville, KY. The biggest in the US. And if you want militaria AND guns, go to the Wanenmacher Arms Show in Tulsa, OK.
Just because it isn’t near you doesn’t mean we don’t have these shows in the US. Same in Europe, some shows in The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany. If you want to go to a big show, you have to travel.
Same
That’s what I love about Europe. You can find so much cool stuff from medieval times up to now. I’d love to visit Europe and do some metal detecting.
The bird coin 11:53 was Hungarian
20:21 eucalyptus oil is PERFECT for that kind of stuff
Hi man! One of the last coin you showed (the one with the bird on the back) it's actually Hungarian, and the funny thing is, it is still in use! So you can actually spend that in any store in Hungary. Just wanted to let you know. Keep up the good work, these are amazing videos, I wish one day I could join on one of the metal detecting journeys! A fan from Hungary.
Oh cool, thanks for the info!! :D
Thank you so much, glad you like my videos!!
Gr Nick
I was confused when I heard "I'm sorry it took so long for a new video, It's been 75 years" until he said since the Liberation lol
Was so excited to see this video, awesome video as usual, metal detecting was great, your bird looks awesome, the fair looks so fun but also overwhelming with all the stuff haha and the reenacting looks amazing, makes me proud to be American. I will be traveling to Berlin to stay with family in a couple months and was hoping to bring a metal detector, obviously I will do more research but I was wondering if you had any tips or suggestions for WW2 metal detecting?
Thank you very much for your nice comment!! :)
Sorry, i don't know.. i've never detected before in Berlin!
Gr Nick
History Secrets I meant for metal detecting on European battlegrounds and stuff haha
Welcome back Nick! Awesome video. Love the reenactment photos. It looks like they were taken in 1945! I am looking forward to your next video. Keep up the good work!
Thank you very much!! :)
Great video! You look very different without the moustache. Wierd that you found a coin from Poland from 1990. Looking forward to the next video, Greetings.
Thanks!
Yes, i know haha! XD
Yeah, a lot of different coins there!
Gr Nick
Holy crap that expo was awesome. I could be there all day looking at stuff.
Yes, it's crazy.. so much stuff! :D
When he said 75 years I thought he would say it’s been 75 years since I last uploaded
Great finds.
A lot of coins..
Cool items that you brought !!
Great vid keep it up...
Thank you again for watching! :)
I was just wondering the other day when you would be putting out another vid. I like the mash up! Different interesting things to view.
Haha, i'm glad you liked it!! :)
Wow!
Thats a "bird"?
I was expecting a parrot at most.
Looks like it flew off a helmet decal.
Looking forward to seeing your dogs.
Haha, i even had parrots too.. but this is a little different indeed! XD
I have big snakes too... i know, i'm crazy! :)
Today in HIstory 6-6-44 75 years!
Great video! Keep them coming.
Thanks!!
My son and I watch all your stuff. Great content man!
It is really great to see you and your friends having such a good time with all of this! Thank you for posting this up, Man I wish I could go with you to one of those huge surplus sales! That looked Awesome! Keep up the good work Buddy 🤘😁👍
Thank you for your nice comment!! :D
The big truck is called a Reo or a whistler because it whistles really loud my friend has one
Sweet finds, enjoyed your video a lot. GL&HH on your next friend!!👍🏼
Pretty awesome fair. Thanks for showing.
Thank you for watching! :)
I like World War II history thank you for making these videos I enjoy it
Right now I'm reading a book about operation Market Garden called A Bridge Too Far
Hey, vraagje, heb je vergunningen nodig om bijvoorbeeld een MG42 of een P-38 te hebben? of is het certificaat van deactivatie genoeg?
Nee , het moet eu onklaar zijn (niet nl pre 2016 etc) , je moet het certificaat hebben en je moet18 jaar oud zijn.
Het is je al uitgelegd, maar je hebt inderdaad geen vergunning nodig!
Ben je ouder dan 18, kun je gewoon een EU Onklaar wapen kopen!
Gr Nick
@@History-Secrets Hartstikke mooi, ben namelijk op zoek naar een PPSH maar de ene zegt weer dat het compleet verboden is, de andere zegt dat het mag mits je een vergunning hebt en weer een ander zegt dat je gewoon legaal is ook zonder vergunning dus ik was ff compleet de weg kwijt.
Trouwens, waar koop jij altijd je gedeactiveerde wapens? of verschilt dat?
@@JustaGuy1250 Als je ouder dan 18 bent, mag je gewoon een EU onklaargemaakte PPSH41 kopen hoor! :)
Je zou eens kunnen kijken op wapenhandelwagemakers, AMS wapenhandel of ZIB Militaria.
Gr Nick
Another cracking video looks like you have been very busy thanks again for taking us along on these trips
Thanks to history secrets I remembered what I was gonna search in youtube.
This is my favorite TH-cam channel
I’m so happy to see your video, Nick! Cool video again! And without the mustache, you look so much younger :)! And you look totally awesome in that US uniform. Must be so much fun! Can’t wait for more videos! Cheers 👍🏻👍🏻😉
I have to try reenactment one day.. I would love to wear the entire USAAF pilot uniform! That would be so cool!!! 🤩
Thanks again Nick, keep it up!
Sonia
Thank you so much! :D
Hahaha, yes... i really look way younger indeed... it's crazy!!
Thanks, yes it was really fun!
I really like the U.S. Combat uniforms, they are awesome!
Yes, why not, i'm sure a WW2 uniform looks good on you! :)
Thank you very much for watching again Sonia!!
Gr Nick
History Secrets thanks 🙏🏻 and keep doing what you do!
Hello, I just discovered you are Dutch. I am French and I wanted to know what are the laws concerning ww2 guns in Netherlands? Do you have the right to fire k98? Can you shoot MG42 with blank bullets? In France everything is pretty restrictive concerning weapons for reenactment
En waar koop je een k98??
These days there are retro inspired digital photo camera's. I also like the look of the 8mm (1932) Kodak camera- Fragment 8 Retro Camera can be changed from 1 lens to a rotating 3 lens type. It is even possible to reproduce the film features of film. Although not many GIs would carry what probably would be a exspensive camera around the battlefield. The Leica firm also produces retro style digital camera's not sure if they have 40 or 30 style cameras. And although German these camera's were sold around the world. During the war Britian bought a lot of Leica's in Sweden for the army photographic and film unit.
Nick your lucky to have all of that history at your doorstep ,so many treasures,is that a real mg42 in your room
Indeed, i'm really glad about that!
Yes, my MG42s are real :)
I am impressed and happy what your doing I have started collecting and your videos help me tell if stuff is original and Ive bin trying for a wile to get my first German helmet love the vids
I'm really glad you like it so much! :)
That shiny silver thing is I believe the top of a bottle beer or champagne
Lmao
16:59 love that m16
Ha when I saw it I had a Vietnam flashback then I started hearing fortunate son in my head
Love your vids man wish they did reenactments and had alot of people selling ww2 stuff love to collect ww2 relics 2 an also keep up the good work man
Thank you, glad you liked it! :)
Awesome video as usual. Keep em coming and keep history alive
Thank you very much!!
Got some good items there. Would love to see a video on your mannequin.
You should do a video on your bird, he/she is really cool
What's with the red dead redemption music?
Sounded like Mad world by tears for fears.
grat chanel!!! good job my friend!
Thank you very much! :D
i ate an apple while watching this video. Nice vid btw
Nice and healthy! :)
Thank you for watching!
Gr Nick
Wow so cool!!
You have inspired me to start collecting and reenacting and I just bought my first M1 helmet pretty soon I'm going to buy my haversack cartridge belt and Gators along with a button-up shirt and the M1 jacket with pants and boots
Impressive pics and video of the re-enactment. Enjoyed the video!
Okay, Nick,
I understand the reasoning behind shaving the mustache...but you look like you're still in high school! :-) So cute! Lol!
Suzy is so beautiful, and she has tamed down so wonderfully! You have a house filled with interesting pets!
The Ciney Fair looked marvellous! I would have quickly gone broke there, so much to buy! I don't know how I would have ever gotten it all home, though...a fortune in air freight, I expect!
I love the pictures you got with the new camera, after you got the settings right, which is always a problem with new equipment. They look antique, which is so awesome! They are expensive, though. Better save that camera for re-enactments only!
I enjoyed the video very much! Take care, and all the best!
Cindy
Hahaha, yeah i look WAY too young!!
Yes, Suzy is awesome, she has a sense of humor too... sometimes she steals the food from the glove so i have to chase her!
Haha, yeah.. it's an awesome fair, but a dangerous place for your wallet!
Thanks, i really like the camera too, the pictures look so old!
Thank you so much for your nice comment again Cindy!
Gr Nick
Recent sub to your channel. I find it interesting that the Germans stamped a Swaztika on even the most mundane items (shoelaces). Not into collecting militaria anymore (mostly 17th and 18th century American and English antique items) but at one time I did have one of the largest Gettysburg specific artillery projectile and relics collections. That was back in the early nineties.
Thank you for that!
Yes, they really liked stamping!
Wow, that's so cool!
Hey man ik ben Nederlands en ik interesseer me ook zo lang in me kan herinneren in de oorlog, ik heb een vraagje ik wil ook met een metaaldetector gaan zoeken weet jij toevallig wat leuke plekjes ?
Toffe video’s ga zo door !
Nice finds, thanks for sharing!
Bit of an afterthought now... but the reason that M1905E1 bayonet is missing its barrel ring is most likely because it was cut down in the Korean War and used for a fighting knife. It was quite common for surplus 05 bayos to be cut down postwar.
I’m 13 and I started collecting wwii German medals, I have a 1st class iron cross, a merit cross, and a bronze mothers cross, then I have a U.S Purple Heart, a U.S wwii Antarctica service medal, and a wwi victory medal
That's awesome!! :)
You rule bro. I’m inspired
Waar heb je jouw Duits uniform van. En wat is er een juiste prijs voor. Kun je ook zeggen welk wapen daarbij past dankt wel ik kom uit België . Waar kan ik in België opgravingen doen ?
Ik koop vaak bij militarycollectibles4u, er zijn nog veel meer sites en winkels waar je ze kan kopen.
Prijzen verschillen overal, ligt er aan welk onderdeel etc.
Het standaard wapen voor een normale soldaat was de Mauser K98k.
Gr Nick
Really enjoy your videos have to say this one was different and I really enjoyed it just as much looking forward to more videos more detecting by the way are you a falconer my son is a falconer
Thank you very much, i'm really glad you liked it!! :)
I've always been interested in birds of prey, they are beautiful and smart animals!
Gr Nick
That garand bayonet is reused by another country after the war the ring was taken off because it was placed on a different gun than a garand
It’s not there any more because nobody affixed there Bayonets on the m1 grands
Not to often it was very rare
Well whatever I don’t care much
now, you have a new suscriber from ciney
Wo ist das genau wo du die sachen gekauft hast?
Great video keep up the good work and great history also
As always, I enjoyed your vid...I would love to be able to do the military fair and re enactment with you, looks like a total blast. I haven't been to Europe since the early 1980,s when I was in the service, but is still looks nice and wet....LOL. Take care and keep up the good work. Rick
Thank you so much! :)
Haha, well.. it's actually getting much warmer nowadays! :D
What I've never seen such a big convention for ww2 so lucky I only go ones a year to the ww2 days but sometimes I go to the army surplus.
That pistol belt is I believe an M1956 pattern belt, although it seems to be a contract belt. There aren't any US markings present on it.
do you know if i can find some WW1 WW2 Brass Knucle to Ciney Militaria ? i Go this years for search some item for my collection
thanks in advance
Has to feed his bird...bird is a raptor...feasting on fresh meat! Nope no parakeets on this channel! At 9:50 that toothed bit of metal looks like the piece that goes on the side of a U.S. style belt buckle. It pivots on the ends when the web belt is pushed into the buckle, then when pulling out on the belt it will bite into the webbing gripping it. Harder you pull the harder it digs into the web belt.
Hahaha, yes.. i have crazy pets.. also big snakes.. i'm crazy!
Yes, really looks like it indeed, thanks for your comment!
Gr Nick
I love you're videos plus it git me into reenacting
That's a great camera-my great-uncle says it's just like one his parents had in the 1950s! What he liked about it was, it was very hard to get camera shake, 'cos you held it against your chest.
Amazing! Like always.
Thank you very much! :)
It's crazy to think the bullet that belongs to that shell casing could have killed someone in a battle.
Where is this enormous expo, and where can you buy tickets. I want to go there as well!
I have a Vietnam m1 helmet and it has some rust and I want to convert it to a ww2 helmet. How should I do it?
He actually has another video, about this. If you look up WWII m1 helmet restoration, it should come up.
Don’t do it, Vietnam era helmets are collectible in their own right. Just buy a reproduction m1 instead.
Nick is like a kid when he gets money he says he gonna save it then when he goes to a store he immediately buys something lol
That bird coin is actually a Hungarian coin (my country)
Nice you are back White new Videos 😀
Hey! Awesome video! I also went to the ciney fair this year, bought a us m43 uniform and us overcoat. Quick question: are you belgian too?
Thanks! :)
Wow, that's awesome, i'm from the Netherlands!
I am always enjoying your videos
That is so cool! Sometimes i imagine myself doing the same
Hele mooie complete riemtong heb je daar gevonden... nice! De rest van de video is ook weer top!😎👍
Bedankt, vind hem ook erg mooi! :)
Thanks!
Lekkere hulzen hoor jongens xD. Altijd leuk zo’n lange video.
Haha, zeker!
Bedankt voor het kijken!
Gr Nick
He uploaded this 7 days before my baby brother was born
Were did you get your American uniform
Man thought you were cleaning the relics and something got you
I'm still alive! :)
Waar is je snorrr 😊 gaaf al die uniforms en details 😍
Haha, afgeschoren voor de Reenactment! :)
Bedankt voor het kijken weer!
Gr Nick
History Secrets jaa, zo lijk je wel een echte Amerikaan 😋
One minute: wow 4:50 for some fries! thats expensive. The next: oh well it was only 25 euros
Awesome !
I wonder if the people from Belgium and Holland do realize how much the Americans and the British did for them...related to WW2 (and not only...if you understand what I mean...) !?!
These reenactments are interesting and...they are good also for the 'young' generation...to keep them..."awake"...
Indeed...strange somehow that M1 Garand bayonet...
It's nice...could you recognize a WW2 gun/weapon that fired a cartridge...just looking at the firing pin 'mark' ? I found many fired 7.92x57mm Mauser cartridges (cases...) with...different firing pin marks... as you said..."dots" ! Some "dots" are...small and some dots are..."large" (not so "large" like that one from the Besa MG !); and the "special" firing pin marks...a 'line' (this mark...I know it's from the ZB30 LMG).
BUT...I would like to be 100% sure about the "dots" ! Most likely (not 100% sure...)...most of them "indicate" the ZB vz 24 rifle (the "large dots" !) and the "small" dots...I still don't know...maybe the Mauser Kar98k rifle (or other "7.92" rifle/gun)...?!?
For example, I still didn't see...until now...a cartridge (case) fired by a MG42 or a MG34...I mean...the "dots" left from them...
Indeed, it's really important to keep History alive, we will never forget what they did for us!!
Yes, the Bren Gun has a weird firing pin, that's why it makes a small stripe on the primer!
Casings fired by the MG42 have the top part bent a little because they were ejected with a lot of force, really interesting!
Gr Nick
I was metal detecting in my backyard and found a musket ball
You should attach a metal detector to the shovel so you know where to dig and stuff
Love the camera. Really looks like it's from ww2! The reenactment looks great as well!
Hi I am a new sub from sweden;)
Awesome, thanks!! :D
No thank you
10:57 yea thats polish eagle ;)
Not really. It is not The Polish one cus it Has a crown but during commie times they removed the crown.
@@iamk4474 it could be the souvenir
In left side you can see ..LSKA and it's POLSKA it means POLAND
@@kuba-02-67 yes it is polish. It's not the real polish eagle tho. Polish eagle has a crown. That's a eagle from the PRL. It's the communist polish eagle. The real eagle has a crown
IamK thank you. U know the truth smart words my friend
Veel te lang geleden ja. Maar je videos zijn altijd super leuk. Ik leer er ook nog steeds veel van.
Leuk om te horen, bedankt!!
