Hello everyone,   My name is Arron, and I'm from Ireland. I've been an avid collector for most of my life; in recent years I started to branch out into collecting militaria on top of everything else that I collect. I'm interested in world militaria, with a focus on British, German and Japanese at the moment: but this forum will probably bring me down some other rabbit holes. So far I've mostly been focused on documents and medals but I'm branching out. I'm looking forward to becoming an active member on the site, learning more and continuing to add to my collection.

Thank you for the links.  My wife will love it. She swears thats her dad on the motorcycle (y'all can hash that out. - lol).  I have additional pics showing commando training, marching,  etc. Wasn't sure which photos ppl would like to see. 

Glad I could help!

Hello All I was hoping someone might be able to tell me what rifle this bayonet was for It is made into a candle holder, I have candle holders made from US bayonets but have never seen one like this I have attached photos of markings and the full length candle holder Thanks in advance Don

Welcome to the WMF, SGT Wade!

Even if it is just a rock, it is a very cool rock that I would have loved as a kid. 

Good point!

Diameter?

If it's metal, it's likely a canonball.  If it's stone, it's a cool rock.     (Maybe it's a ball bearing for a main battle tank sized monster truck.  The key to its identity is likely its origin ~ where it was originally found).

Garden ornament.

I happened to come into possession of a stone that someone thought looked interesting and I agree it is very odd if it was naturally formed. Can anyone help me tell what it is/ when it was made or if it is just a cool rock. Any opinions would be helpful!
