For some reason paratroopers are dominating this United States block today. From the great 503rd Parachute Infantry patch to the named grouping linked in below. I also spotted a nice listing that included a D-Day gas mask.
Today the German block in the newsletter features four different auctions on helmets. What might be the oddest item that I included today is the silver crumb pan and broom. Hey it was listed in the WWII category so it's game!
Thank goodness the seller of the Brodie helmet below included a picture from the war because when you first see it that's an odd piece. Some of you might like that British commando blouse pictured below. Other items are from Japan and other actors in the war.
My favorite listing in this WWI only block is the war bonds poster warning to keep those red boots off our shores. However, if you want to see a really high flying auction that might slip over $1k in bidding click on the Scottish Kings Bodyguard sword below.
