[@WorldWarMilitaria1942]

Hi John great pair of binoculars at that price, it's sad to know that lives were lost when the ship was sunk that day but thanks for sharing I wouldn't of known about this.

[@steelhelmetstan7305]

Cheers James m8, yeh we live and learn in this hobby for sure🙂🙂

[@ChrisfurrsMilitaria1941]

That's a great price for two pairs in good usable condition. Me and my bro are always on ebay 😊

[@steelhelmetstan7305]

Cheers Chris, yeh I'm always patrolling around on ebay....some rubbish, but sometimes a bargain 🙂🙂🙂

[@Kingshieldwall]

That HMS Barham footage always shocks me everytime I see it, bloody awful 😔😔

[@steelhelmetstan7305]

Yes I agree, the futility of war, those sailors running for their lives....should be shown in schools as part of history class🙂🙂🙂

[@steelhelmetstan7305]

🤣🤣🤣, yes I was real lucky with these, I've still not gotten around to sorting them out....maybe at the weekend 🤔😃😀

[@JimTimber]

The reason why sunk merchant ships were not announced was due to the Bletchley Park breaking of the German Enigma code !!

[@steelhelmetstan7305]

Cheers jimbling timbers, all the very best to you m8 and thanks for watching. Yeh they are a great couple of pairs of binos 🙂🙃🙂

[@Kingshieldwall]

Stan, be careful of your gas masks mounted on foam heads. I read somewhere that polystyrene can start to ruin the rubber ( check, i may be wrong ) 😉. Be careful, I've mounted all mine on fabric or plastic heads 👍

[@steelhelmetstan7305]

Thanks for that tip off , I had heard that before, I do keep a check on it and it seems fine. I did have an issue with another ww2 gas mask degrading ....apparently its hard even for museums to stop this , unless they are kept in drawers out of light etc. I'm sort of ok with the ones in the man cave as they are not expensive ones and for 95% of the time they are in complete darkness....that is unless the mannequins turn the lights on when I'm not in there!🤣🤣🤣, cheers m8 and all the very best to you 🙂🙂🙂

[@Kingshieldwall]

@@steelhelmetstan7305 no worries top man 😉👍

[@Irishshootingchannel]

Who doesn't love a bargain.😂. Royal mail do seem to be getting worse. I ordered a caubeen from an Ebay seller. The seller is fine but yet again, Royal mail use a courier company who can't be contacted and lost the package.

[@steelhelmetstan7305]

Cheers yeh I agree, all is not well at the Royal mail currently, as online shopping is becoming the norm....its a problem that needs sorting, thanks again 🙂🙂
