Steve; Could you also give me the German dealer with the shoulder straps? I’m interested in the 23rd,24th Dragoon straps as well as the 25th artillery straps, if they still might be available! Cheers. Dick
Tony; Nice to hear from you! On pg 207 of The German Artillery by Herr and Nguyen they show an officers helmet with 2 studs on the rear spine and say it was for the version worn after 1897. The ones shown do not have the rear spine studs, so are they pre 1897? Cheers. Dick
While we are on Hessian artillery, can anybody explain why some helmets have 2 domes on the rear spine while some do not? Does it have anything to do with pre-war vs wartime?
Amy; Great helmet! I have a question about the ball top. It appears to be oval and not round, is this because it is an officers helmet? Can I assume EM helmets would have round ball tops? Are you leaving any artillery helmets for the rest of us?
Holy cow 2 guarde FsA to the 4th battery in one day!! Still looking for one, love those artilleries!!! Great helmets. Amy & Steve! Amy, your artillery collection is growing!
Lurch; I'm having trouble with the Zelle website. I'm not internet/computer savvy!! I cannot seem to get through to register! I do not have a home computer or internet service at home, I use the local library computer. I do have a paypal account. Unless we can transfer the money some other...
Lurch; I did not get anything yet about Zelle in my email. As I look I must have sent you the wrong information!! My email address is [email protected] Sorry about that I must have hit the wrong key!!!
That sounds Ike a deal! The pair of officers dress boards and the single enlisted man’s FAR 14 red shoulder strap for $400.00usd! Can I send you a personal check? You can hold the items until the check clears if you need to!Let me know where to send the check and I will get it off to you ...
Lurch; If you decide to sell the epaulettes for 50th FAR and the DB strap for the 14th FAR separately, please let me know! I live in Mn Cheers. Dick Roback
