Allways a hard time ... good luck! I feel that day closing in too....

It is a red flag, on his own! ;-)

Thanks for your response. I was not in favour to take it of, as it was sitting quiet straight, and hard to pass the wappen. But, you are right it helps. For what I notice it convinced me even more to be a original one. I am talking about the ends of the leather strap, that are behind the loops...

Out of the woodwork came this M 15. With some issues....but "untouched" in a certain way... To me it was never used. Only stamped with a date and the size in the dome. (1917 and 58 1/2). No removable spike, silver paint on the wappen, 91 slots of the chinstrap, the back reinforcement and the...

Here in France they have a bank holiday, for the WWII victory. Not sure where this picture was taken...France or Belgium. If it is France it must be up north. I wunder where the helmet ended....

And here is a other framed KM souvenir. Need to inspect this too, but not know. I am not sure if the scene is print or painted on the glass. Because the inner black frame is (painted on the glass!) for sure....

It is in, and I took it out of the frame. The cloth is nailed on to the back of the frame. I 'll leave it as it is for now. To much other stuff to do....

Go to the "attach files" at the left, under the frame you are using to post a message.

Just got my self a bunch of documents to a captain who started his career under Napoleon and made it to his retirement. He got wounded several times and fought in various campaigns. Quiet intresting to read, imagining what and how it must have been...."boys will be boys"....;-)
