If the experts leave and/or dont want to join this or any quality forums, then people like myself will be truly lost at collecting.
My Great Uncle lost his leg at the Russian Front and my Grandfather was captured in Italy then handed over to England. He never talked about the war, so I am missing a lot of history and family knowlege. So anyway, for me I have respect for collecting Military artifacts. I don't buy and sell, nor do I repo. anything. I'm not into that sort of thing. When I hold a helmet in my hands, I think of the sacrifices, the blood sweat and tears of the soldier who wore it. It is too bad some people have to "fake" a helmet for money, and as a new collector I relly on proper knowlege from books and EXPERT PEOPLE WHO CARE!!! (and the not-so-honest people need to be weeded out) So if you are one of these people then you should stay and help because I need all the help I can get. thanks...my 2 cents.
