Thieves broke into the collector's house on Thanksgiving Eve and stole his collection of Nazi Memorabilia. Link to the collection follows:

Interesting collection covering several campaigns in WWII. Estimated value is $75K to $100K.

Its a shame to lose this. We can help by being aware of the theft and keeping our eyes open.

Hopefully the man can get his collection returned to him.

John, Thanks for the heads up...I buy big safes but that's no guarentee either...I hope they find these thieves and the guy gets a chance at getting his stuff back. Really tragic.

Jerry,

The television report actually showed that he kept the stuff in two dresser drawers.

I'm not sure the collection is all correct but even if it is not, its a shame that someone felt desperate enough to break into a house and steal something like this.
