Hi Guys,
thank you for your comments, I appreciate much.
Here some objects which I found this Summer with my friends Benoit and Anthony, members both of the forum (gingerbread & Anthony G) in two bunkers of Lorient (Scorff Bunker & 10° UFlott home).
We took what interested us (me, the small equipment for my collection) and we divided them.
-a collar of sailor (look at well in the trap of ventilation)

-a signet ring with the initial GW & a matchbox

-a bottle of Perrier (which comes from Keroman)

-a german bottle (beer ????)

-a Berliner Schlossbrauerei bottle

-a paperboard of canned foods, the white traces are soap remainders (I badly rinsed) (Benoit has the other side)

-a toothpaste almost full, a toothbrush, a french toothpaste box empty

-and the best for the end , worn condoms found in the trap of ventilation of a room


regards, olivier

This is a great collection Olivier - you have a good eye! I like the personal items - combs, soap, cigarette, buttons, magazines etc - they really humanise the soldiers. Do you have a display cabinet for these items? BTW, I think that the collar you show was for wear by itself in hot weather, a bit like a waistcoat.

Thank you John
I built myself a cupboard.

I don't want a mannequin because I like to touch, to feel, ... the objects.
I would like to find a cupboard of quartering to put my equipment and to have at side a small window for the small equipment.

As regards the collar, also named as “Exerzierkragen” was this collar worn together with the blue shirt and the working shirt.
best regards, Olivier
