My militaria collection!!

[Spanish Freiwillige]

Thanks for answering my questions. It must be cool to know what division something belonged to and the location. For the mannequin idea, I would go for something with as little detail to the body as possible so you can look at the items more rather than the face, hands, etc....

I agree the manikin itself will be plain, probably white with no face......the thing is every time I am about to go for gear another helmet appears.........I´m terrible at getting focused on a display....!!!

Was in Germany for a few days and could not resist making a little purchase of items:

Well I decided to play around wit my displays a bit, so with this parka, since I bought it thinking of the men of the blue division in the inter of 42-43, when they received it for the first time, made this:





but when you look at period photos most don't show the decal so made this other one too....

So this are my two parkas so far, with lots of combat wear just as I like them...

Then I also managed to finally get some goggles to match the condition of my pith.....

Thanks my friend I was hoping you would like them, as I know how much you enjoy parkas too.....

i like all of them , just becareful the goggle strap is not to tight, because the canvas tend to deform

[Spanish Freiwillige]

I thought, well that the goggle strap would eventyally become loose and I could live with that, as that is why I bought them, but never thought the canvas of the pith would give away.....
