Extremely Rare 1st Model British Paratrooper i.e. Bruneval Dropping Container - Nice Used Condition This is an extremely rare example of a 1st model British Paratrooper dropping cannister. Refered to as "Bruneval"refering to the 1st significant parachute operation in world war two. We have never encountered such a piece before! The cannister is executed in jute supported by bamboo i.e. wicker sticks in order to support the compartiments. These cannister would have been used to drop mainly weapons and supplies behinh enemy lines. Unfortunately the hooks and straps have been replaced post-war. With the cannister come two sets of webbing straps that could be used to restore the container. There are soem markings ink stamps on the container one of them is Weapen Drop Roll 1944 the another differance stamps are army stock numbers A fantastic and truly one of a kind piece of Airborne Equipment that therefore cannot be upgraded. Extremely Rare American Paratrooper M2 i.e. D Ring Helmet With Inland Liner as found - Nice Used Condition The M2 Paratrooper helmet was developed after the introduction of the paratroops in 1941.The M2 helmet was similar to the M1 helmet but had semi circle (D ring) chinstrap loops of steel wire welded on the shell. These loops were fitted to give freedom of movement to be buckled behind the paratroopers neck, and to prevent the risk of the shell being blow away by the blast of the jump.
The welded loops proved to be inpractical as they would break easily. The production was stopped in months after introduction. Unfortunately the D rings have been broken off the helmet shell. About 15000 M2 helmets were handed in and repaired or reinforced with brass welding by regimental riggers. This M2 helmet compromises textbook example. Never been repainted, with laundry number inside H 6028 The Paratrooper Inland liner had the yokes been cut off the liner. The exterior of the liner has been painted white. Extremely Rare German Propaganda Pamphlet Battle of the Bulge/Bastogne - Excellent Condition This is an extremely rare example of a German Propaganda leaflet. The leaflet is coded K1-907 on the rear. The pamphlet seems somewhat wrinckled which is a common feature for leaflets that have been forced out of an artillery shell as would have been the case with these pamphlets. This leaflet would date back to late december 1944. Interesting is the fact that Bastogne is specificly mentioned as Bastogne was the stronghold of American troops of which the Germans could not take. The leaflet bluffs about knowing the strategy of the Americans on their next move. Also they added some divide and conquer by pointing out that some U.S. troops would be under command of the British. Ultimately the Americans kept put and Germans retreated into Germany.
An incredible piece of history both on propeganda and Battle of the Bulge. Simply cannot be upgraded or might even be found agian.

Fighting the British at Arnhem SS-Unterführerschule Arnheim Its Origins and Operations against the 1st British Airborne Division September 1944 By BoB Gerritsen - New Out of print now Fighting the British at Arnhem’ describes, amongst other events, the involvement of the SS-Unterführerschule Arnheim in what is now known as ‘The Battle of Arnhem’. The SS-Unterführerschule Arnheim was a school for soldiers of the Waffen-SS where they were trained to become non-commissioned officers. The training was extremely demanding and rigorous. During the ‘Battle of Arnhem’ the school's officers and students were chiefly deployed on the western fringes of the area so desperately defended by the 1st British Airborne Division. The school was established at the end of 1943 in Arnhem and remained there till August 1944. In that month the school was sent to the Dutch coast and deployed for coastal defence duties. At the beginning of September 1944 it was moved again. This time the school had to take up security duties along the River Waal. When, on 17th September 1944, the 1st British Airborne Division landed in the Wolfheze area, the school was swiftly mobilised and transported to the battle area. It was incorporated into the ‘Kampfgruppe von Tettau’, a force raised as a direct result of the airborne landings. This force was commanded by Generalleutnant Hans von Tettau. Its main task was to destroy the British airborne forces and thwart Allied plans, both of which they managed to do. Not only doe

We managed to find the following provenance online;
Born in Louisville, Ky., on May 23, 1884. Engineer. University of Kentucky, 1905. Died, August 6, 1973.
He organized the International Engineering Company of New York in 1922 following service in World War I as a Captain in the 138th Engineers in France.
International Engineering has been the largest American company in Thailand and he served as Chairman of the board. He received a distinguished decoration from the King of Siam for his many contributions to that country. He was a close friend of the royal family.
At the beginning of World War II, he was caught in Bangkok by the invading Japanese and he and his wife spent a year in an internment camp. They were released and returned to the U. S. in August of 1942.
He served as a Major with the U. S. Army for the remainder of the war were he has was in charge of prisoner of war camps untill 1946.
On the helmet shell it is clearly visible that a Captains bar had been welded on the shell. This was later removed and welded. The Majors rank had then ben applied on the shell. This imo supports the above provenance. It should be noted that the chinstrap has another named applied to it; "Stoller". It was a common practice that equipment was reissued also to higher ranks and have come across this often in other groupings.
