Some things from the Soviet Zone of Occupation

[Don D.]

Here are a few things I picked up when I worked in the east prior to the Wall coming down.

First is a tank has priority road sign. Gotta wonder why you would need this.

some training aids I picked up out of the Special Purpose Forces training area at Retzow.

The first is an illustrated instruction for the PMN antipersonnel mine.
next 2 are demolitions related.
First, how to cut steel cable.

[Don D.]

Oops, that was the steel cable cutting charge. Here is the mine.

And of course evryone needs one of these. It was going to go on my trabbie but I couldn't import it because of emissions.

That "tank crossing" one is neat!

[Bill D.]

VERY COOL !

...but couldn't you have also "borrowed" one of those "YOU ARE NOW LEAVING THE AMERICAN ZONE" signs ???

I always wanted one of those things!

I was rummaging thru my old footlocker and came across this. Needless to say, I was a bit younger then.
