Here is the page issued from the Kriegsranglisten. This guy was in the KB FAR3 (1899), then 1902 to an Artillerie und Ingenieur Schule, 1903 to a Schießlehrkurs, 1905 to an Equitationsanstalt (horse riding school), 1909 to the 4. Chevauleger Regiment, 1910 to the 8. Chevauleger Regiment and to...

This is a very good and scarce one. Pickelhauben from the east regions of the german empire are pretty hard to find, because they mostly were engaged on the russian front. I particularly love them and I own three of them. - A JR45 (Insterburg and Darkehmen) marked JR45 and BA.I and dated 1915...

To my opinion, the name is not Lengendorf but Langendorf. There is only one guy with this name in the saxon Verlustlisten in a artillery unit, Alfred Langendorf who was in the 5. (F) Batterie of the saxon Feld-Artillerie-Regiment 245 formed on the 28.3.15 near Rozoy (Aisne) from the former III/...

Hello, Here is a correct marking for the Fuss. A.R.12 (BA. XIX):

Yes, unfortunately a parts helmet... Philippe

I think I can read from the left to the right: 3B - 10.C - 1 2 - 62.R This is an old M91. The 10C is matching with the 3B. Further, the 1 and 2 could be the Garnituren downgrading, as on one of my helmet (most of the time, one can see I II III and so on, but rarely: 1 2). Philippe

Yes, just take a look at what a good wine cellar should look like 😁 Philippe

Instructors in military schools and even in Ersatz Bataillonen or Ersatz-Batterien in the Heimat could have worn such pre war helmet mit chinscales up to 1916 or even later... Unteroffiziersschulen also had a few companies... US never could have been the german abreviation for...

Hello all, I totally agree that the Unteroffiziersvorschulen had complete other rules than the Unteroffiziersschulen. The cadets at the non-commissioned officers’ preparatory school (Unteroffiziersvorschulen) were not military personnel. Unlike the non-commissioned officers’ school...

I fully agree with Thierrys argumentation . (y) Philippe

Hi, A very tricky subject... We had a lengthy discussion on a French forum in the past about this type of Wappen After much deliberation, we concluded that badges with the cross attached (soldered) are suspect and may be copies... Only those with the cross cast as a single piece are 100%...

Hello Mark, In this case, we have the Ersatz-Rekruten Depot I. Philippe

Welcome Piotr and thank you for your presentation ;) Philippe

Hello, It would have been nice to introduce yourself briefly first to our small community ;) . That being said, we have here a Garde Wappen for Garde officers helmet. Unfortunately, both screws at the back to fix the Wappen on the helmet are missing / broken... About the value, some other...

Hi, Yes, I own a M95 initially marked R62 (and not 82!), BA VI 1908, which is correct for this unit, then transfered shortly before the war to the 22. R.J.R..III.B. Named to a wearer (Valentin Nowok from Radoschau / Radoszowy / Kattowitz), 12/RJR22) who was KIA May 1915 on the Loretto-Höhe...

Weitze would explain those bigger holes with a unit change of the wearer 😁 Philippe

I agree with most interventions here...Nothing wrong on the star presented. Philippe

A typical Feldwebel helmet, 12 years volunteer. Philippe

Absolutely unique! 😮 Philippe

What ultimately remains important in our field of collecting is that we are satisfied with our acquisitions. We all have a little bit of experience based on more or less meticulous observation and comparison of objects. If you have a good feeling about a purchase, that's the main thing, but that...
