Please pardon the slow response. We were on vacation in Norway and the British Isles. We just got home today.   Thank you for the update and the excellent photo. The only information I had on this helmet until you commented, came from Zentner’s Deutsche Militärhelme, 1895-1975 (German edition).  Do you have any sources or photos concerning its use by the Belgian Army? 

I was going through some bags of misc medals and found this. I had never examined this one and noticed the edge was numbered. As you can see, the rim area preceding the visible numbers "704" is damaged. Medals aren't my thing, so I was just curious if this was soeone's horrible atrempt to enhance the value of a GC medal? Or if the numbers (at least the reamaining numbers) could be legit? Thanks for any help.

Great find as these are getting harder and harder to find.  One sold on eBay (photos below) last month for $204.00.        

Nice Cobra 6! What era is it from?

Thanks Blitz. It is because you guys are the experts that I submit this to you. You always deliver. Any thoughts on the Captain Skirving  in the Medical Corps-No. 0388147?

There is or was a similar one on WorthPoint described as, "RARE 1950'S EARLY 60'S 19TH ARMORED ENGINEERS "E" CO. ON TRIANGLE ARMY GREEN BRD."  The letter "E" is smaller and the number "19" uses a slightly different font.   https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/1950s-early-60s-19th-armored-1901482006

Thank you, sir. I couldn’t agree more. The Korean War is absolutely wild to learn about and frankly, the combat conditions of Korea were anywhere from trench warfare to urban combat. We frequently learn about the Banzai attacks in the Pacific but seldom do we hear about the massive wave attacks in Korea. 

Beautiful displays!  Really well done.

I know that too, we guess company is using up excess poplin cloth.

Flea market finds of the day!   -Laundry numbered dress jacket, found some goodies found in the pocket. The sleeve patch was taken off sadly. -Vietnam KIA presidential letter, can’t find much on him, John J. Hopeck. -Named Luftwaffe visor, insignia was taken off at some point. Not an expert on German stuff, not sure if it’s air crew, signals, or FJ. I wonder if the name can be researched to! -Dust goggles, desert storm era -Daisy western cap gun -Homefront 40s/50s USPS winter cap with the cool numbered badge -SEAL insignia   Was a great and fun day to find some militaria!
