Interesting, anyone know the film title. There was a few encounters like that in the Henry Metelmann book `Through hell for Hitler`, lots of joviality, sharing biscuits and vodka. As soon as they returned to their own lines the Russians started shooting at the Germans...sneaky beggars. :lol:

The lighter's fine isn't it? I think Kermit has one of those.

It's an IMCO lighter which were around in WW2 but not that actual design which is a triplex super, circa 1956. they are nice lighters though.

good reference here:

“I wanted to come to the Volga at a specific location at a specific city. By chance it carries the name of Stalin himself. So don’t think I marched there for this reason – it could carry another name – but because there is a very important goal... this goal I wanted to take – and you know – we are very modest, we have it already."
Adolf Hitler, November 1942

"Comrades, Red Army men, commanders and political workers, men and women guerrillas! It is on your perseverance, staunchness, fighting skill and readiness to discharge your duty to the country that the defeat of the German-fascist army and the liberation of the Soviet land from the Hitlerite invaders depend! We can and must clear the Soviet land of Hitlerite vermin."
Joseph Stalin, November 1942

I don't think its a film. I think its from a Russian BoB style series called Shtrafbat (Penal Batallion).

Pockets on their gymnastrokias as well

The ones with pockets are M35 tunics. :wink: Although non of them seem to have any insignia, I guess because they're a penal unit.

Although it is actually very similar to the 1937 dated one , (2nd row 3rd from the right) so maybe its not so farby after all!?

Just got home and had to check - its an ordinary current manufacture Triplex Super 6700 that cost a fiver IIRC.

And have just found out the ring at the top is a moveable windshield (I had no idea it moved :slap: ) and that by firing up as normal then pulling out the entire fuel tank you have a nice broad flame to light your pipe with. :happydance: (I'm easily excited :oops: )
