Re: Cobru
Thanks for the comments, I had the luck to arrive there at the right moment to take these. It was also a pleasure to see all these very good groups performing in that small village, historical ground and right season of the year, just perfect

Re: Photoproject "Fahnenschmied nach vor!"
Thank you all for the nice comments !
Patrick,
The tool you have on the left is called a "Butteris", this is a old tool used for trimming the horse hoof. It is a long, sharp chisel wich could be pushed by the farrier's shoulder. No longer used in most parts of the world this days.

Re: what is the proper position of wearing the Gasmask cannister
This is the text in the Reibert (from 1938 /39) how to carry the gasmask for unmounted, mounted troops and troops sitting in vehicles. In this text he strap is going over the left shoulder. The different "allert" positions are also descriped. http://img810.imageshack.us/img810/2992/afbeeld...
