A pouch for my bolt cutters,and a gift from a collector mate,a genuine pair of 1942 stamped ammo boots ,in need of a little moisturising but otherwise perfect.
A black flatcap. My partisan kit is now complete (for now).

I read that three times, and after the first two times, spent ages wondering why a partisan would need a catflap...

Haha, I did exactly the same!
“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

No I'm not.
Someone may have edited the quote in my post, but they missed the other 2...
He's got you there Lardy... 
No he hasn't.
Well I'm convinced... My Moderator powers are weak.
HA! So there, lardy! 
Ok you win. 
My new catflap really wasn't worth this many posts. 
Anyway, back to new stuff; A battered old knife my dad has given to me that I'm going to use the blade for turning into a 'Finka'. Just need so nice wood for a handle and some leather to make a sheath.
Ah, so you did get a catflap then!
