History Secrets thanks man. You as well brother! Love the channel your one of my favorite to watch!! Hope to seen you one day when I come over there!

@@HistorySavior1941 That's awesome to hear, would be really cool!! :)

History Secrets what is your email I have a few things I may send you

@@HistorySavior1941 You can always contact me at: goldeneaglemilitaria@gmail.com Gr Nick

A Kayfabe thank you for commenting and I couldn’t agree more! Thank you for supporting the channel and thank you for your fathers service as it’s important to remember their stories so that they can be preserved for the future generations.

Thank you so much and thank you for being the 300th sub!!! Means more than you know and I agree completely that the personal items are more interesting because they are rarely discussed. Will be more videos on this soon!

History Savior 1941 Awesome! I love German personal items. And I am somewhat confused and cannot find any videos on RU-vid about how to properly fill out a Soldbuch, would you be able to make a video about that? (If you cannot, that is not a problem).

I can actually make a video on that and would be happy to do so. Thank you again!!!

History Savior 1941 Great! Thank you! Im looking forward to it!

I’m no expert at it but do have some advice and tips that will help that I can definitely share

Smitty I am a follower of Chris. I actually purchased the 1939 tornister in the video from Chris. He is a great guy and very knowledgeable. I actually purchased a repro cardboard Schokakola box from Warsendshop. They are by far the best at replicating original items. Thank you so much for the comment and your support my friend. It’s always challenging doing a video like this because people pick impressions apart. Most of this is original however or direct reproach. The toothpaste is actually From Italy but has remained unchanged since the war. I usually carry repro Solidox tubes but was out at the time of filming this.

@@HistorySavior1941 Haha, I hear ya. I have all my gear stored in crates next to me. Piles of stuff...yet I'm not brave enough to share it. Now that I have my passport again, I'll look to head down to the PNW again to do some tacticals....well, maybe once I'm down a few pounds, haha. Damn stich-natzeeez.

Lol I will be up in Toronto possibly again sometime around March....we go to a lot of events in Ohio and have some here in Florida and Alabama over the course of the year. I have crates upon crates of gear and equipment. Panzersoldat1 and HistorySecrets are some great channels to check out as well.

@@HistorySavior1941 Shall do! Have a gander at my good buddy Mike's brand new channel: "HandGrenadeDivision" based on our 65th Inf Div. unit. Only three videos but they are quality.

Will do tonight for sure

mark Bohamed www.warsendshop.com and wwiisoldier.com are the websites that I mentioned. Thank you so much and yes Smokey is an amazing guy and is all for getting more people interested in the hobby of rations. I do contests during some videos...something new I just started and will be having another of the next video. Thank you so much for your support and I hope you continue to watch. This channel is a mixture of different content that is all history related. Will be doing more ration reviews very soon!

Thanks for watching and for the info. I will try to pick one up!

@@fluffycat6373 nice! That is a steal!!

Readiness Reviews that is also true. The main two that is heavily known however (well more talked about) which is something that needs to change....were China and Japan

That is very true. It always intrigues me as well to see how much has changed and how much is still the same. Thank you for watching and for your service to our country!

Smitty absolutely correct!!!

mark Bohamed thank you so much for your support on my channel and on Smokey’s as well. I am sure I speak for us both when I say that it means tons! I hope you enjoy the content on the channel and look forward to talking with you more!

Readiness Reviews thank you so much for watching. I wish I cared more about WWII when I was younger as well because I could have a ton of things now lol. Now things, as you pointed out are more expensive to get.

MultiMagnum62 thank you John!!! I would have loved to hear your dad’s story. Men like him is why I do this. The koffee konserve can be found on warsendshop.com for $6 a tube and it’s well worth it. The rebut tablet was luckily an ok smelling one lol and my wife didn’t kill me. Thank you for the support that you have given me from day one. Words can’t say how much I appreciate your support!!!

He would not talk about anything, until later years. After he talked, I understood why. We lost him, 2015, one week short , of, 93rd birthday . Peace, Thank you sir.

Thank you for the comment Kahlest! Unfortunately they would have more than likely seen some of the worst parts of the war in Holland. I couldn’t imagine being a child in Holland hearing and fearing the bombs and German troops as they moved through. Unfortunately due to what they witnessed, it is probably too painful to talk about because they more than likely lost family and friends and witnessed the horrors that war brings. At the same time however their experience with the war is very important. They are a living testament to one of the darkest times in history.

@@HistorySavior1941 I know and one story that my Mom did tell me was that her and her sisters were sent to another city to be kept safe in a church. They were lucky in that they had the protection and food. My Grandfather knew in advance that they were coming into the small town so he made up a lot of pots of sauerkraut and buried them in the fields, when the soldiers came and raided every house and took every crumb of food that they could because they were starving after they left my grandfather dug up the kraut and keep the entire village fed. My Uncle and his friends would go out after curfew and they would hide in the dark and throw rocks at the german soldiers, they did get caught and one of his friends was executed as an example for the rest. A family friend who was also in Holland during the war was living in Friesland and everyone was starving her dad volunteered to the german soldiers for medical experiments in exchange for safe passage for his family. He later died from TB.

A Kayfabe absolutely the correct answer! It was indeed Japan and China and the others are rarely mentioned but were also at war. Japan and China were however the main answer that I was looking for.

History Savior 1941 Thank you :)

No problem and if there is anything else you need help with just let me know...are you in the US or in the UK?

History Savior 1941 Thank you. Yes I will do that. I'm from Germany.

Can you link me the product please? I can‘t find it.

Didn’t know that. Thanks for pointing it out!

​@HistorySavior1941 No worries. I made the same mistake a few years ago and was made aware at a tactical event once. A little embarrassing haha.
