Default WWII memorabilia

Can anyone point me in the direction of a message board or knowledgeable party regarding WWII items?

Thanks,

Scott

Depending on the type of items, I may have some information. Will send you a PM.

Thanks for the replies and PMs - all have been responded to.

Not posting pics here because there are symbols which (understandably) are offensive

Really interesting items!
Quoting Lisa Simpson to Homer in the episode 'Politically Inept' when he uses a gravy boat as his symbol...
"You know, symbols can often rile people up.
Like the swastika or the New York Yankees logo.

I spent a few years selling a 100K collection for a relative. This is what I learned…
There’s a lot of help on militaria forums. People were very helpful.
There’s a lot of fakes just like any other collectible and some are really good.
Patches are like sports cards. A lot of commons but it’s always fun to find the big hits.
As you asked here, keep researching.
Best Always,
Vinny
