What does the bottom stamp look like, Nestor?

Those are awfully nice!   --Ski

Any comments?   Is it 798?    A non existent unit?

Hi, what do you think of this Zippo lighter? Cheers!

Great. Thanks very much!

I remember well Creuilly HQ of the BBC and its ground completely buried in mud. For info... the MOIDO Jeep is a reproduction of that of Commander Massu of the 2nd DB of Leclerc. The one that is in the photo belonged to a member of our club at the time.

Hi,   It’s always interesting to see props repurposed for movies—at least it’s a change from equipment designed specifically for films. In addition, aluminum M1 bayonets were manufactured for *BoB*. Good point—too bad about the Greek markings.   Another example : *The Enemies* (*De vijanden*), a Belgian-Dutch film directed by Hugo Claus in 1968. A German soldier carrying an SAFN 49. In this film, the weapons and uniforms are all over the place. GI's with Mausers, not K98ks...  

Spent the weekend leading up to Remembrance Day and Liberation Day at the "Tour de Waal" event.  Did some Make do and Mend activities on Saturday, repairing old re-enactment gear and clothing. Not a lot of visitors though. The few people who passed by the display were impressed by my (lack of) sewing skills. 😄  During the night we were hit by hefty rain showers and thunder, wouldn't have been so bad if I hadn't pulled guard duty at the time.  Didn't take many photos this time, I was carrying a post-war Leica If with a Wartime Zeiss lens on it anyway.  I did snap one of this uncommon re-enactment impression; a War Artist. 

Nice one. Looks like a bona fide M-1C, certainly have the correct lot range. This would have been a late March / early April 1945 production.
