Thank You..

Didn't know they had price controls during the Korean War. Found it in the building.

Hello. This is printed.

The hill fated mud field of Creuilly... 198??? 199???    I do not remember the precise year...   O tempora ...O mores.....( Cicero). 

I’m sorry, Nestor, my eyes are not that good. Is the word “ZIPPO” stamped or engraved?

These are supposed to be pretty good wood stoves.  If I had a second property I’d be looking for one to use.

Now go find the rear panel it was once bolted to! 😁   To quote the Man in Black, 'One Piece at a Time'...    

Buried STUG III found in Germany   This remarkably intact & complete STUG III was found buried at Fliegerhorst Nordholz near Bremerhaven in early 2026... What a find! ☺️       Apparently it was surrendered to the Allies at the end of WW2 together with 2 other STUG's, a Hetzer and a Marder III. It seems all of these were buried on the airfield some time later, so there is a decent chance these other vehicles will be found as well. It appears this STUG could certainly be restored back to road-worthy condition, depending if funds can be found and where it will end up.   For more info see  https://www.zwiadowcahistorii.pl/dzialo-szturmowe-stug-iii-g-odkryte-przy-lotnisku-w-nordholz/ https://www.wehrmacht-awards.com/forums/forum/wehrmacht-uniforms-and-equipment/achtung-panzer-forum/16018335-stug-iii-found-in-germany
