Default Re: Holster War Story

Look at the massive number of M43 caps soldiers are shown wearing during and just after the war. Despite that, few seem to have survived. The same for old uniforms. I suspect most were worn to bare threads after the war till new clothes could be bought perhaps years later.


A gunshow tale is that 100,000 WW2 German helmets were used as fill for the Vienna airport runway.
