Where is George Backhaus's helmet on display? Wife and I would like to visit.

Hey man. Right now I use it for public PTO displays and presentations so I'm gonna hold onto it for now. But if my focus changes you'll be the first to know! Out of curiosity, do you have some pics of the others you have?

You may have covered this in another post (and if so, do please direct me there!), but I'm curious in how you made the clear container, itself.  Did you cut it out using a 2D plotter-cutter (like a Cricut)?  What material did you use?  The same for the production of the clear labels.  What printing process and materials did you use? You should be very proud of how all of these turned out!  Outstanding display items! Thanks for sharing! Edit: I see that you covered most of the above questions in your D-Ration thread!  Again, great work!

If you have flyers or information on any other shows in your area please send to me and I'll post them to the ASMIC Website. www.asmic.org/events-shows

And their families, I always wonder how they handle such an event.    

. Hi Bob,    Pleased to see you brought this to everyones attention again,  As I stated sometime ago it's oustanding and preservation as well, these would look good in a museum display alongside life-boats and survival displays.   kind regards lewis. 

Based on what you paid for these patches and being a new patch collector, it wouldn’t be advisable to blindly purchase any additional patches from this dealer.

. Now For Something Different,  Then & Now Utah Beach 1944 - 2026   Well giving a break from Jeep stuff with this post.  Shots of Utah Beach 1944 and 2026.  As can be seen the re-utilised railway beams in place in 1944 are still to be seen in 2026, note behind the wooden beams are the abandoned concrete posts for a triangular German Beach obstacle.   Also seen similar square objects of abandoned unidentified pieces are evident in the 1944 and 2026 photos. ( plus in 2026 shattered pieces of the plastic cages that mussels are grown in along the sands of Utah Beach )         Norman D. Landing, Forum Normandy Correspondent, 31 March  2O26.   …  

Tooth washers for better grounding are mainly part of the late ( second pattern ) suppression kit. My 1942 GPW does not have any or hardly any compared to the later models. I suppose this would be the same for an early MB which had no or very few tooth washers...
