      my buddy has an ss Mauser his grandfather gave him

      I of course had to point out that it needed oil to ward off the rust mark, and let him know what a doofus he was

      My grandfather didn’t serve in Europe, he was in the South Pacific as a PT Boat Gunner so after he died and we went through his belongings, we found bayonetts he brought back still with blood stains. It opened up a whole different person to me. Not bad, just a deeper understanding of him.

      I wonder if Grandpa fought in the war. Most soldiers, including my grandfather who fought in WW 1, were very reluctant to talk about their experiences.

      My dad was a rule follower so he did not try to bring home any stuff like that. His brother supposedly brought home a Luger. We were told it was in his basement, but when he died, we didn’t get a chance to go up there before the house got cleaned out, so probably was stolen or never existed at all.

      Walther P-38 on the right. My grandfather also brought one home…still shoots great!

      My uncle brought home a nazi youth knife. I keep it on a shelf, in my home office.

      Somebody try grandpa and they’d quickly realize they ran up on the wrong mother fucker.

      “Oh man I haven’t seen this in years. My buddy made this quilt out of all the nazi scalps we collected.”

      You just know the words “dead kraut” were included in that story multiple times.

      My grandpa also had a Walther P-38 as a trophy, but word got around that anyone caught by the Germans with a German gun would be executed on the spot. He got a rid of it pretty quickly.
