      Next up is a Flak soldier wearing his heavy winter coveralls. I need to do some work on the mannequin giving it some flesh tone and paint the eyes.

        next is my FJ sniper wearing a Gebj anorak and sporting a K43. Still looking for a ZF4 scope.

          You know, there's some serious money out there to be made by someone artisitic enough to convert these department store escapees into something a little more suitable the display of militaria...

          Seriously though, it's a great display. However the expression of that flak officer had me on the floor..

            I was thinking the same thing--they look like the type that hangs around public restrooms on dark German streets late at night....

                Hey Guys it was cheap! made in China!! some folks pay big money for these mannequins!! I figured stuffing a cigarette in his mouth would get rid of some of it's stupid expression. - Bill

                    Giday Bill,

                    Firstly, thank you for sharing these three photographs with us.

                    Secondly, could you please share with us photographs showing in full the ski standing against the wall and the documents, (including one for the Kreta cufftitle), in the frame.

                    All the best,

                    Ian

                      Ian,

                      Thanks for your compliment. My Digiital isn't the best so here goes!! The Documents are behind glass and the glare makes it difficult to take snaps. There is a four document grouping (EK2, LW Ground Assault, Eastern Front Medal. and KRETA cufftitle) glued to a hard backing by the Veteran. Name of the Vet is Uffz Max Kretchmer, FJ Pak Kompanie 2
