This is a follow- up to my post in Firearms-   The Babenhausen Rod & Gun Club regularly had military surplus stuff for sale- mainly pistols- in the early Sixties. I bought a Polish Radom there for $9, and a Walther P-38, and a "Broomhandle" Mauser for similar bargain prices. No one knew where this stuff was coming from.   Does anyone know the source of this trove of WW II surplus weapons?

Hello and welcome to the forum! Nice work.

Nice flea market finds!  Stationed at Neubrucke while working at the Borfink NATO bunker back in the early 1980s.  Wish I had been collecting rod and gun club items back then.   Keep showing new items.  Thank you.  

This is a new, larger Des Moines, Iowa, Military Show with 100 tables to be held in a separate room of the same building where the Des Moines Gun Show is held. In other words, the Military Show will have 100 tables in a separate room, and the Des Moines Gun Show has 530 Tables in a separate, larger room inside the large 4-H building on the Iowa State Fair Grounds in Des Moines.  All contact information and show details are on the flyer I have posted below. This show is purposely being held during the dates of the MAX Show, because the show promoters know there is a large number of Midwest Miliary Collectors and Dealers who are not willing to make the drive to the MAX Show at Lancaster, Pennsylvania.          

I know the owner, who is active on Facebook and I believe he is a member here.  Let me know if you want his contact info.  I am sure he would discount it to account for the fees for a direct sale.   The shell has been repainted, but that is common for helmets that saw a lot of use especially an early shell like this.  It does look like there is another ETO bar under the paint to the left of the bar shown.  Another good sign is the discoloration inside the shell due to the heat when the insignia was brazed/soldered/otherwise affixed to the shell.  The shell and liner were paired together, but the liner is worth money too.   All in all, its a good helmet.  As far as price goes, it is whatever you are willing to spend.  M1s have gotten VERY expensive over the past few years and it has become harder to find cool items.        

USS Stark FFG-31 Master at Arms badge #2.    The Stark was an Oliver Hazard Perry class Fast Frigate commissioned in 1982.   On 18 May 1987 the Stark was attacked and hit by two Exocet missiles fired from an Iraqi aircraft in the Persian Gulf. The attack, and lack of shipboard defensive systems response is still clouded in mystery to this day.    37 Crewmen died.    USS Stark survived the attack and was eventually decommissioned in 1999. She was scrapped in 2005/6. Her stern plate is on display at the USS Stark memorial at Mayport Naval Station.    Very happy and honored to have this badge.     

It would have been the 366th Supply Squadron.   Lineage.  Constituted as 366 Supply Squadron on 15 Nov 1952.  Activated on 1 Jan 1953.  Inactivated on 25 Sep 1957.

Thanks ATB appreciate the info and reply.  

Silly me. Tried one more google image search after 4x and found the one on the left.    366 Logistics Readiness Squadron (ACC) https://www.dafhistory.af.mil/About-Us/Fact-Sheets/Display/Article/980773/366-logistics-readiness-squadron-acc/

Reverse images all come up short. Thanks in advance.
