Chim Chim the Diminutive Posted January 17, 2022 Share #1 Posted January 17, 2022 I was working in the Military Zone of the Egyptian desert, and I had the opportunity to visit the German and Italian cemetery at El-Alamein. The caretaker of the German cemetery invited me to his house for tea, and he proceeded to show me a fistful of crusty insignia. I purchased a Afrika Corp pin which I suspected was a repro. I did some research and confirmed the pin is fake. So, I have a fun memory for $50.00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SARGE Posted January 18, 2022 Share #2 Posted January 18, 2022 A good example to buy the item and not the story. Been there and done that. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
