    I played in an adult 40+ league. I am unfortunately going to have to cut back though. My legs are just not as good as they once were. Standing on blades for such a long time, my feet are getting numb and it is taking much longer to recover. The Rolling Stones said it best: "What a drag...

    Great wappen collection. How do you display it? Those contours are very challenging. Would love to see what you have come up with. Thanks for sharing. Best Regards, JustinG

    I like your line out descriptions. Had me chuckling. Especially with the lower rating of condition and the price increase. BR, JustinG

    Mecklenburg units during WW1.

    Well, I came across this list which seemed pretty intense. From the little I knew before, Mecklenburg helmets are considered to be more rare as they sent fewer units to the war, however, the list provided here shows that there were more units and so I would assume that there might be depot...

    2 Pickelhaubes on eBay

    I too have thought about posting here, some ebay pickelhaubes. As a newbie as well, I had figured that any good deal was going to be immediately snatched by a member here. It is pretty difficult to find an item that you can get for a bargain. I have accepted that the best course of action is...

    To translate or not? That is the question!

    Definitely loose something in translation from the original German to French or Dutch. Same thing could be said about any cross over translation. The military has a language that is entirely it's own regardless of which country it is from. I agree with you on trying to keep the language to...

    Any fellow members here who enjoy a good Bier ?

    There is also something to be said where you are enjoying your beer. There are some beautiful venues to enjoy a nice frosty stein. Here is one from the Mittenwald Brauerei.

    Any fellow members here who enjoy a good Bier ?

    The town of Aying, just south of München looks exactly like it's notable bottle cap and company logo. Here's from my visit this past summer. Well worth the side trip.

    M.1891 other ranks marine pith helmet.

    A beautiful example. Wow. I am surprised that there isn't a Reichsadler or even a remnant of one on the frontside of this piece. Wouldn't that have been present? Well done and a beautiful one. Best Regards, JustinG

    Any fellow members here who enjoy a good Bier ?

    I usually pick up 4 of the Advent calendars. Really for $68 dollars (At least what they sell for at the Costco here in Anchorage) 24qty of 0.5L cans, that equals out to $2.83 a can. That is a heck of a bargain. Cheers/Prost. Best Regards, JustinG

    Any fellow members here who enjoy a good Bier ?

    Greetings, I love a great German Hefeweizen. Mainly, because they follow the Reinheitsgebot and you never need to add fruit or any other esters or aromas that are common for American Hefeweizen. My personal favorite that I can find here in Anchorage is Ayinger Bräuweisse. I have a Kegurator...
