hi,
nice items

hughes

One of my favorite objects: a battledress jacket of the "2de regiment jagers te paard"
It was a unite of the 1(BE) korps.

Some uniforms of the 60s
1962-1965-1968

Some webbing parts:

A uniform set of a soldier who dit his military service in 1967.
His unite wat it 122 regiment transmision troups (ttr)
This unite was a part of the second (BE) corps.
This unite was established in 1958 and disbanded in 1972.

Now is the perfect time to collect sets like that, as older folks clean out their closets and move to retirement homes, etc.

I don't know if the cleaning kit should really be there. I followed the example of a photo on a belgian second-hand website ,but i can,t find it back.

My belgian M49 helmets. The one on the right is form the navy. They're from 1951-1952 -1957?

An unused M56 tent bag. I can't find a date, but there are some manufacturer's markings. I think it's from the 60s.

There are some photos there from the MKOK museum, which I recommend if anyone is near Leopoldsburg. They have lots of stuff to examine, and the guys there are very friendly to visitors.
