[The Hanna Reitsch stuff and the militaria collection is safely stored here in the mansion.

When are you going to give us treat and show us that stuff please?

Well, small problem, vault storage is 2nd floor in converted ballroom, and since the stroke in April, I cannot make the 26 step stairway, and not sure husband would be willing to hunt for it for me, after all the "fetch Lugers" errands I have already put him through.

All I have on the hard drive is some of the tinnies and a few badges and patches... none of the uniforms, flags, shooting awards, daggers or the desktop eagle.

I shot these pics back in 97, so even these cases are just a fraction of what the collection grew into. So, sorry, but here's a tiny few.

Disclaimer: this collection is not a political statement, just historical artifacts.
