VFW overseas cap of Pearl Harbor Survivor Milton W. Verberg (1921-2019) of Orange, California. On December 7, 1941, Verberg, a 20-year-old Army medic, was at Hickam Field. While tending to the wounded the second wave of Japanese planes struck Hickam flying so low that Verberg could see the faces of the pilots. After the war Verberg transferred to the Navy and served as a Corpsman during the Korean War.



Milton Walter Verberg
March 16, 1921 -- December 19, 2019

Two orthodox crucifixes the soviet army issued for their religous soldiers. Both are embossed Aluminium, about 1mm strong, the larger one is about 20mm high X 10mm wide.
Not sure how or whom exactly my grandpa got these from, he served as paymaster of a hunter battalion in the eastern theatre.

Prussian Hirschfänger from border patrol at Danish/Prussian border, around 1870. Gift from an uncle, location is coherent but no real idea where he got it from. Blade length about 500mm, armory hallmark is authentical.

Original hbt coveralls, never issued, dated 1938 and my reproduction A-2 with Fifinella, and AAF leather patch. WASP uniforms outside of flight gear can be hard to find

Those were the days; when the military issued books of poetry to the troops.

Unfortunately „culture“ did not and does not keep many from pulling a trigger at any time or any nation.
