Tom Kibler Posted November 16, 2021 Share #1 Posted November 16, 2021 As I posted on USMF, I recently acquired a wonderful US send home chest full of goodies. Included in this was a nice, captured M40 Luft. What makes an otherwise ordinary helmet special, is that it comes with bring-back papers & a photo of the grave he took it from. Many of the items in the trunk, I believe came from the location of several photos… Which was an airfield outside of Berlin. Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Kibler Posted November 16, 2021 Author Share #2 Posted November 16, 2021 If you look closely at the photo where he’s holding the Luftwaffe pennant, you can see the helmet next to his leg. The photo is marked “A German grave”, on the reverse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fortunes Of War Posted November 17, 2021 Share #3 Posted November 17, 2021 Tom- Man, oh man; you can't beat that! Great to see the send back trunk, all of the goodies and the bring back papers, as well. Thanks for showing- I almost enjoy the send back containers/boxes as much as the items inside.....well, not quite as much!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Kibler Posted November 18, 2021 Author Share #4 Posted November 18, 2021 Thanks! Another photo of other graves at the same site. I believe this was an airfield outside of Berlin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
