Very nice collection you've got there JT

 

Please put me in your will, for at least the Army lids ;-)) Ill have you in mine for my 1957 RK collection ;-))

 

Carl I think you are mistaken here, this is a 2nd pattern Blood Order. There is a complete list for the 1st pattern Blood Order with a few numbers missing here and there...but all of the names are there. It is my understanding that to date, there are names for the 2nd pattern Blood Orders but the corresponding 'key' to match the numbers up with the names is what is lacking.

Nope, im not mistaken in anything. I never called this award a 1st or 2nd pattern, I only mentioned that I HAD a list-whether complete or not? I dont know?) of the recipients of the Blood Order-which was the first pattern. I found the email I got this list sent to me in and thats what the list was labled-as a list of recipients of this award-1st pattern.

Besides, im not into non military stuff and wouldnt know a 1st or 2nd pattern blood order if if they were dangled in front of my nose. Im only into militaru stuff, but I once had an interest in the names that were on that list i recieved via email-only because I collect names and like trying to research them to see if whom on that list might have lateer become a high ranking Officer or a highly decorated soldier. Thats where my interest in the blood order ends.

 

Carl,

You simply stated that you could give the OP the name for his BO and I was simply informing you that no you couldn't because the Blood Order list only matches names and numbers up to around 1500. I wasn't calling you a liar...calm down!

As to you having no interest in such an important piece like the BO...it's a shame because the 1st pattern BO along with the Coburg (original not the re-issue) badge are two of the most historic awards in the entire Third Reich period. Without them you would have no 'military' medals and awards to collect...none of us would.

JT that is a great collection, I really like the way your frame and present your medals, never seen it done quite so well
super impressive
thanks for sharing the photos

 

Sorry for my mistake,, I must have mis-read your post. I also wear glaasses and dont have them because they are in the shop waiting to be repaired ;-))

 

Great lids, I am amazed by the quality of the liners. Is the Neumann lid a bunker guard Km helmet (the eagle looks gold) or is it Heer ?

 

Skipper, the eagle is only a little yellow. Its a Heer Helmet.

Thank you for posting and all the nice feedback

Here is another item I like from my collection.
Pionerjacket Hauptmann batt 50 (Krim).
All original and not tampered with after the war.

Regards JT

 

Great Hauptmanns tunic. If you want? I can do a wee bit of research for officers in that Pi Btn? Might get lucky and find out who he was? and maybe someone with a high but unseen decoration ;-))

 

Yes....PLEASE !

Regards JT

 

beautiful tunic JT, congrats ! say is the GAB maker marked possibly ?

 

Will do but, it'll take awhile as I have to sift through some 30,000 names. Ill get started on it tomorrow ;-))

One thing I can tell you right off the bat is, that he spent a lot of time hugging the ground ;-)) I noticed that almost everything has a similar amount of paint on the highlights rubbed off of them. Ive got a couple of awards that are like that.

 

Not disagreeing at all and for the tunic in question it makes sense, but you do also get that same effect in AFV's - the vibrations on the bulkheads/hatch coamings/insulation do a very similar job - we didn't of course wear gongs like the Wehrmacht, but we used to get the same effect on buttons (which would end up rounded off like a chocolate drop), binoculars and radio gear etc.

 

Heh heh, this reminds me that ill have to look at my Artillery Majors tunic as its been 18 months or so since i last looked. I never took the time to look for that kind of detail on mine ;-))

 

Hi Erich,

The GAB is a Juncker, but not marked.

Regards JT

 

I only have two German Visors, but hey are bouth in good quality.
First the Heer Visor
