Its very sad that we have to explain about collecting German ww2 my father's and I are opening a ww2 vehicles and Uniforms and equipment Museum we had Family who fought on both sides US and German and we do German ww2 Reenactments most of the stuff we have is all German we have Traveled all over the world collecting vehicles and equipment and still do we will be open this summer. You would love to see our German ww2 vehicles and Uniforms we plan on starting a TH-cam channel for our Museum. Your Collection looks good keep up the good work
It gets worse... I collect WW2 German documents and on some of the forums I use, stories come up about families (in Germany) throwing away stuff when their parents/grand parents die, because they don’t want to be associated with that time period. An example I heard was a family of a Knights cross winner, who (when they sold the KC medal) were asked about the award certificate that came with the medal said “We have burned the award certificate, because his name was on it”.
Me:WHERES THE GUN oh *picks up German helmet* nice oh wait *puts on German gas mask* how do I look OH FINALLY *goes into a broken German barrack* *comes out with a British uniform and a m1 grand*
Hiya Nick, nice collection sir. Love the house as well. Like you I have my WWII collection spread across my entire house. Figured why not I'm divorced, kids are grown, married and it's just me and my dog. Started collecting back in the 80s and have amassed a huge collection now, plus model planes, R/C aircraft and a shop out back with muscle cars in it. Needless to say I never get bored.
@@robertgreen6027 Some people, mostly very far-right people, believe this. But most intelligent people know that he was a massmurderer and they understand that not every german was a horrible nazi but just a normal citizen or soldier like everyone else.
history secrets, seriously you are the best TH-camr the coolest TH-camr EVER! you don’t understand how much all of us appreciate your videos we take them seriously and we love them soo much thank you and keep the videos up because WE LOVE THEM!!❤️🔥🔥
For those of you, whom are curious. And would like to know more. That small brass tool, that History Secrets showed us was nicknamed the "Cricket" by the paratroopers. On a side note, the Edelweiss was only worn by the 1st Mountain Division of the German army. As the Edelweiss only grew in the Alps..where the 1st Mountain Division trained.
Man I’m hoping one day to be able to collect like this! You truly inspire people and I’ve always enjoyed watching your videos thank you so much for showing everyone history, hope one day I can get a chance to meet you and be able to share history together!
I was looking in a closet at my grandpa's house and found an original US Armored div. Uniform and a Russian submachine gun in a old box . Oh and your house really cool HS!
sure you did...im sorry but i don't think your grandpa would just be having that as a secrets and who would he have a russian smg and a us uniform if he doesn't collect
I'm a new subscriber. I absolutely love your TH-cam page. I am also a WW2 collector, mostly German but also collect anything of that era. I been collecting on and off for 40 years. Your collection is phenomenal. I love all of your videos, especially your backyard trench videos. Keep up the good work of preserving history and thank you for creating your channel. Looking forward to many more videos.
Hey HS, just a random idea, maybe yearly updates, just to keep up. Love the video and thanks for being such a great role model for me and the rest of us. Ww2 is a special war for me since my 95 year old great grandfather , who lived in fresia Netherlands, escaped and survived and hid from the Nazis. Just finished my first US ww2 uniform from the battle of the bulge.
It's very cool to watch this video. It hits home in some respects. My Dad was a Highly Decorated Medic in WWII. To see the medic helmet looks just like one picture of him wearing one. Although the white is a lot brighter. Also the 30cal munitions from St Louis, we grew up just a mile from that factory where it was made. Thanks for sharing
I’ve got a blue toy rotary phone from 1943. They were made for the kids but the production went down because of the war and stopped being made. It’s got the original paint and all, pretty nice condition!
@@tompreuner9698 sorry I can't remember what it's called nor can find the link to it, search history secrets vids and the thumbnail is of him near the pit with i think a helmet in his hands, sorry I can't be more clearer it's just I've watched a lot of vids since lol
What a awesome collection! Man how freaking cool. My collection pails in comparison... Wow!!! Would love to meet you some day you knowledge is unsurpassed!!!
Dont sweat those people who are calling you a nazi they are hypocrites. I respect collectors like you because you hold history and tell the stories about them.
I love your collection, I been collecting for over 35 yrs .My favorites are relics, they tell a story that no mint item can tell.Most of my relic helmets come from digger in the eastern front..in particular from a young fellow that has pieces of a Tiger tank in his backyard.
Gracias!! por compartir este video de tu excelente coleccion e ilustrarnos de sus historias para los que no hemos tenido la oportunidad de visitar un museo con muestras de la WWII
WOW! Amazing stuff! Reminds me of looking through my great great uncles things from when he was in Europe. He brought back an SA knife, a Luger pistol, and many of his other personal effects like his mess kit and p38 can openers. I’m so glad to see someone who takes great care and carries on the history of these things! Keep up the great work!!!
theres so much ww2 nazi/japanese reminiscent things to star wars. go watch the first scene in phantom of the menace and tell me those guys of the trade federation helping the sith werent represented as japanese due to their accents. lucas knew what he was doing
IMPRESSIVE collection, sir. I’ve watched a few of your videos and they’re all very well done with zero BS. I reenact WW2 Fallschirmjager here in the USA. I actually live In St.Louis and I had no idea 50cal rounds were produced here😃
Damn Buddy! Your collection sure has grown! I Love your work and want to thank you again for taking museum quality care of all of those Historically significant items.
Just came across your channel. You have an extremely encompassing collection that I can tell is a labour of love. My grandfather is a Canadian Fighter pilot who will celebrate his 100 bday in Oct. I have his flight jacket and photos as well as pictures of his flight log. Keep doing what you are doing. I am very impressed. I also have my firearms liscence and am in possesion of a Mauser K98 1942 BYF. It has all matching serials, waffenamts and 4 eagles with swazis. Was't going to shoot it but that didn't last long. It is laser straight and a beautiful piece of history.
The love for history that you have it's touching! It's rare (I think) to find some with that passion! A big hug from Portugal (and sorry for my weak english)!
Good job 👍 What a great collection! Very, very nice! 👍👍👏👏( ps- you don’t need to explain to anyone why you love history! You just keep doing what you love and sharing! Historians, like me, we understand your enthusiasm)
My family is Jewish. Moved from Russia to Israel in 92. Grandpa fought in ww2 with the Russians. Yet, I find German memorabilia very intriguing. Thanks for this video.
I think WW2 and any history is so interesting and i hate how people think that they can erase history i hate it also i love that you show this ww2 history with us thank you.
I actually own a m35 SS African core helmet that is in amazing condition that costed a fortune but definitely worth the buy and it sets as one of my best items in my collection
I know you will never see this but i just wanted to say that you were the one who inspired me to start re-enacting on the axis side. I do not currently have anything to re-enact with, but that will change in the near future. And to be honest I just wanted to thank you for inspiring me.
i love your collection man. people these days dont understand just how important it is too keep these valuables safe. I love history and i have a few collectables but man i got respect for those who do this
I was given several rubbermaid totes of original 30's and 40's jazz 78s. Benny Goodman etc. I was also given a rock from Dachau, I have a purse (Canadian Army) with the name inside and many more things too. Impressive collection!
I'm an airborne infantryman (paratrooper) in the US Army. I'm an Afghan veteran. I have met people who are airborne who have never seen band of brothers lol. Also if i'm ever on leave around veterans day or memorial day, my grandad (retired airborne infantryman and veteran of the Vietnam war) go to all the local cemeteries and place flags out for veterans who are berried there. If they died in combat or received a purple heart during their time in service we put a purple heart next to their american flag. Love your collection brother
What a fantastic collection you have. Here in the UK I have an interest in German militaria with a very small collection so I appreciate the items you have. I watched this article having view your trip to the German cemetery in the Netherlands.
Fantastic collection, love your dedication!! I also detect military items from old WW2 army camps in Australia as we had a large US and Nederland East Indies presence but obviously not like Europe. You are doing the right thing for the right reasons and don't listen to all the naysayers. All the best and keep it going. Cheers, Vic
I understand that it’s hard to own functional weapons where you live but it hurts me to see that you have deactivated weapons I just don’t think it does them justice
It's Europe. Here in France, my friend is a gun collector. He has a Kar98k, but the barrel had to be blocked and welded due to regulations. There are times when guns like the Kar98k all the way to an MG42 can still be in working order, but I believe you have to be in a museum. Not quite sure. We are allowed to own pistols, we just need to be part of a club. We are also allowed to own rifles specifically used for hunting. Basically, we have confusing gun laws, but it's also good at the same time. We haven't had any school shootings and terrorist attacks have been cut down because of the laws and requirements to own a firearm. As for knives and bayonets, no one cares.
Nice collection, I like how you collect in a way where you have basically everything or at least something from almost every country in WW2. Great collection, big fan!!😀
Look at this way: when someone REEEEEEEs in the comments about the Third Reich we can all just be like "well you were warned at the start of the video".
Really liked this video you have absolutely a incredible collection. Really liked seeing your artifacts and listening to you describe what they are.You have a lot of knowledge about World War II and I really enjoy all your videos and all the really interesting knowledge that you share with everyone during them just amazing really. My favorite of all your artifacts is your German machine guns those are just incredible and in really great condition. Thank You for showing your amazing collection looking forward to your next video.
Great video, just don't pan (move across each object) so fast next time. What a large collection. I remember a long time ago suggesting to you that you contact Benny Bellamy's family about your discovery of his incredible bullet-nicked dogtag. So I was really impressed that you have now adopted his grave. That's really good of you. One day your collection should be left to form a museum of remembrance to the conflict of WW2. Its really wonderful. Thanks for sharing. Happy New Year from across the seas!
I am just curious how, even as a collector, he is allowed to have all those weapons in the Netherlands. Are they not functional? I was under the impression that main land Europe had some of the strictest gun laws in the world.
Awesome stuff there Nick! I just bought an original single decal M42 Heer helmet in fantastic condition, some original Feldpost letters, and some Reichspfennig coins to add to my collection! My helmet is probably the best example of a single decal M42 I have ever seen, and I am lucky enough to have bought it. I am currently building up my German WW2 and French WW1 collection.

He really should get some british homefront stuff and Raf stuff like an ARP helmet and an Raf visor cap and Beret

If we forget history we are bound to repeat it. Very impressive collection, keep up the good work
You've got a big enough collection there to start your own museum

That IS a museum.

Yeah I agree, acknoledging and collecting relics from WW2 shouldn't label you as a neo nazi
Yeah I agree it is piece of history
I always tell this to people who think I’m a nazi because of my items. “If you don’t acknowledge the past, your bound to repeat it”.

Love the video and thanks for being such a great role model for me and the rest of us.
Ww2 is a special war for me since my 95 year old great grandfather , who lived in fresia Netherlands, escaped and survived and hid from the Nazis.
Just finished my first US ww2 uniform from the battle of the bulge.

Love that battle damaged M40 Stalhelm with the 2 bullet holes. I was blown away by it since your first video that you made on it.

Basically, we have confusing gun laws, but it's also good at the same time. We haven't had any school shootings and terrorist attacks have been cut down because of the laws and requirements to own a firearm. As for knives and bayonets, no one cares.
Nice collection, I like how you collect in a way where you have basically everything or at least something from almost every country in WW2. Great collection, big fan!!😀
No where near.
Look at this way: when someone REEEEEEEs in the comments about the Third Reich we can all just be like "well you were warned at the start of the video".
Really liked this video you have absolutely a incredible collection. Really liked seeing your artifacts and listening to you describe what they are.You have a lot of knowledge about World War II and I really enjoy all your videos and all the really interesting knowledge that you share with everyone during them just amazing really. My favorite of all your artifacts is your German machine guns those are just incredible and in really great condition. Thank You for showing your amazing collection looking forward to your next video.
At 2:56 thats a Knight's cross not an iron cross first and at 2:50 thats the iron cross first class
Cool!
Great video, just don't pan (move across each object) so fast next time. What a large collection. I remember a long time ago suggesting to you that you contact Benny Bellamy's family about your discovery of his incredible bullet-nicked dogtag. So I was really impressed that you have now adopted his grave. That's really good of you. One day your collection should be left to form a museum of remembrance to the conflict of WW2. Its really wonderful. Thanks for sharing. Happy New Year from across the seas!
I am just curious how, even as a collector, he is allowed to have all those weapons in the Netherlands. Are they not functional? I was under the impression that main land Europe had some of the strictest gun laws in the world.
I wish he would answer that.
They aren’t functioning
They are deactivated.
Awesome stuff there Nick! I just bought an original single decal M42 Heer helmet in fantastic condition, some original Feldpost letters, and some Reichspfennig coins to add to my collection! My helmet is probably the best example of a single decal M42 I have ever seen, and I am lucky enough to have bought it. I am currently building up my German WW2 and French WW1 collection.
Little game: take a shot of vodka everytime he says original
You'd be completely drunk in the first minute of the vidro lol
State of Wyoming You were literally founded in 1890 🤦♂️🤦♂️
