Outstanding collection! I am far far behind you.
I have a Heer copy of the same photo album, what size photos do you put in it, and how do you mount them? Do have have a photo of the a page on the inside of it?

I have been doing FJ since 1999.
The awards i received over the years
The Jump badge because i was a real paratrooper in Argentina.
The AFRIKA cuff title for combat during Desert Shield/Storm.
Flak badge , i was the only guy in the NWHA who knew how to operate the 105mm Howitzer the club uses during the Public Battle at Ft. Stevens, i also trained all the gunners for it.
EK2 for a couple of actions at different events , one i held of 2 Amie half tracks single handed during combat at the MOUT site at Camp Rilea, second i led an attack against the bridge at BIAK whipping out the Amie defenders and capturing their 37mm gun and a jeep.
the Luftwaffe 4 year service award i got in 2004 for years in the unit.
The Luftwaffe Close Combat Clasp for hand to hand combat against Soviet troops from the RKKA at Mt Hood
the EK1 was awarded to me for volunteer work at Ft. Stevens and for the 41st Infantry veterans association at Camp Rilea.
I only wear the EK2 , 4 year service medal ribbon , Jump Badge , FLAK badge and AFRIKA cuff tittle , the other medals are just for displays.

A very nice personal items display, camerate! You’ve tempted me to take some photos and show off my personal items for Italian. I especially like that issue of “Adler” with the GIL kids on the cover. Regarding how you got your Flak-badge: was that at the 2003 or 2004 event? I definitely remember the howitzer -I remember it every time my left ear starts ringing! I was really surprised they gave it to us to use. After all, it isn’t everyday the Nat’l. Guard just hands over an artillery piece to you.  Frederico |

Hmmm, how does hand to hand combat work with reenacting? I don't think I have the coordinating to sneak up on anyone anymore, but it might be handy to know how to properly H2H fight Klaus when he sneaks up on me!

Frederico , yes it was during the 2003 public battle that i earned it , i still remember the Guard dropping it off along with the blanks and just leaving , no one at the event knew how to use one and then John Welsh said , hey Ed knows how to handle just about every weapon and they came looking for me.
