    Thank you Alan and I appreciate the valuation on the spike. As mentioned when I have a decent idea of the values of whats here, I will be happy to offer everything here on the forum.

    Devil Dogs (Music Video) by Sabaton on The Corps Birthday

    Very cool, I am good friends with the guys in Sabaton and just spent several days with them in Oct on the US tour. I am in the official "Devil Dogs" video with them. I took them to the USS Cod where part of the video was filmed. Sadly, I am retired Army and my Dad was a Marine... Add to that my...

    Criminals

    I spent a lot of time in Verdun in the 80s and early 90s and it was really awesome to see the items and shrapnel just lying on the ground. I brought some items home but not too much as like you said, I am not really into dug relics and in many cases it does promote some bad behavior like...

    Help to restore a JzP helmet extra parts available for trade

    Spent some time at the museum today with a few of our Board members. While working on a separate project we discussed the above helmet and parts and the general consensus was to sell it all as parts. So, before I mess anything up I am hoping that you all can help me one more time? If possible...

    Help to restore a JzP helmet extra parts available for trade

    No worries and I cannot get offended at something that was free. Like I said, if it was possible we wanted to save it but if not, then it just goes through our Board to make a decision on disposal. The parts will likely end up on eBay if they decide to get rid of it as that is the general...

    Help to restore a JzP helmet extra parts available for trade

    Thanks Coert, I am not too worried about the liner as it would not be seen. What we would like is to trade parts we have (above) for parts we need. Can you tell me what we have that belongs? Also, is it a kurrasier? Thank you, Scott.

    Thanks and yes, I have checked for markings and will attach a better picture of the inside. I found no marks at all which is why I thought that perhaps the Uncle brought the hardware and the Nephew got an early repro?

    Here is the shell. This helmet belonged to a museum Board member of ours and he passed away back in Feb. Supposedly his Uncle brought it home with the hardware shown??? While he was not a collector, he was a really good guy and we would love to restore it to be displayable in the museum...

    Its possible that we may sell the parts in the future, right now we would like to try and save the helmet by trading for what we need. Thanks for checking. Scott

    Help to restore a JzP helmet extra parts available for trade

    Hi and thanks for letting me join. I run a small museum in Michigan and we recently came into possession of a pretty messed up JzP shell. The sum of the parts appear to be good, just not for this helmet. So, perhaps someone here could use some of what we have in exchange for some of what we...
