Neo-Nazis use 18 in tat- toos and symbols. The number is also used by Combat 18, a violent British neo-Na- zi group that chose its name in honour of Adolf Hitler. 14: This numeral represents the phrase “14 words,” the number of words in an ex- pression that has become the slogan for the white supremacist movement. 28: The number stands for the name “Blood & Honour” because B is the 2nd letter of the alphabet and H is the 8th letter.

  • 1. Fallschirm Division Fallschirmjäger Regiment 3 Lehrbataillon 3 Kompanie
    I/FJR3 Unit Manual Version 1.0 1. Fallschirm Division Fallschirmjäger Regiment 3 Lehrbataillon 3 Kompanie Unit Manual I/FJR3 Unit Manual Version 2.0 2 Welcome to Fallschirmjäger Regiment 3! Willkommen! This Unit Manual has been designed to give you a mid-level view of FJR3, with historical background and all the information you need for starting re-enactment as a Fallschirmjäger. For a deeper view or for any questions you might have, just ask the German CO, your Unit CO, or your Fallschirmkameraden. Raison d’être The purpose of our Unit is to re-enact the experience of the Luftwaffe Paratrooper as it occurred during the Second World War. We do this through first-person interpretation at living history events, public battles, and tactical battles within the operational parameters of the Historical Re- enactment Society. Our aim is to entertain and educate, whilst we ourselves learn more about the recent past. We portray a unit from 3 Kompanie I Battalion (Lehrbatallion) Fallschirmjäger (Parachute) Regiment 3 (I/FJR3). Fallschirmjäger is usually translated as ‘Hunter from the Sky’. We chose to portray FJR3 as this Regiment fought against 2nd NZ Division on Crete, in Africa, and finally in Italy. FJR3 is absolutely NOT about politics, nor will we tolerate any individuals who wish to spread extremist views of any kind. Such persons will not be welcome in our Unit. Our members are students of history, and although we portray German Soldiers we are NOT Nazis. We wear the hakenkreutz (swastika) only because it was used throughout the Third Reich period (1933-1945) as a national symbol.

  • Winchester Model D Military Rifle
    THE WINCHESTER MODEL D BOLT ACTION MAGAZINE MILITARY RIFLE Half Brother of the UK Pattern 1914 Marc Gorelick Virginia Gun Collector’s Association When people think of rifles that were derived from the .30-06 U.S. Model of 1917 (M1917) they usually think of the Remington Model 30 series and the Remington Model 1934 military rifle that was produced for Honduras. However, the M1917 was itself a modified U.K. .303 Enfield Pattern 1914 (P-14). During and after World War 1 the Winchester Repeating Arms Company also designed and produced civilian sporting and military rifles that were partially based on the P-14 and the M1917. Winchester was one of three U.S. companies, along with Remington and its Eddystone subsidiary that had contracts to manufacture the P-14 rifle for Great Britain during the war. Most, if not all of the machinery and tooling belonged to Britain, and was to be exclusively used to manufacture the P-14. However, Winchester appears to have used P-14 parts, manufacturing equipment and tooling to produce a number of little known sporting and military rifles that it designed and tried to sell during World War I. One of these rifles was the Model D Bolt Action Magazine Military Rifle. Winchester Model D Design and Production Thomas C Johnson, a Winchester engineer and designer who worked on the Pattern 1914 rifle for Winchester, also designed the Model C sporting rifle and the Model C military rifle. Both were heavily influenced by the P-14 and the military rifle in particular, bears a strong resemblance, to the P-14.
