alconlon Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 (edited) Lately I have not been buying much, but I have been collecting for close to 50 years and have many boxes of stuff.I have started going thru the boxes and have been pleasantly surprised by some of the items that I completely forgot that I had .I think I have too much stuff,medals badges,patches etc.Are any of you guys having the same experience?

ahrtal Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 I was looking for a German surcoat that "disappeared" for three years. While cleaning our basement prior to moving, I found an unmarked, taped box. Thought it was a box of tool---nope! It was the surcoat! I never have found my two .45 WWI/II holsters. They must be here somewhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major General Bil4338 Posted February 29, 2016 Major General Share Posted February 29, 2016 I do that too, we all must do...we accumulate so much gear that some gets put away.then when you go back to seek it out, other stuff turns up you'd forgotten about.it's only natural!must be the primal human desire to forage and store, just that by nature we're better at it than most normal beings...☺️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beldar Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Yep. I found a Mauser C96 that I had forgotten all about, not too long ago in one of the vaults. I also found a carton of software from the '80s buried in one of our closets (an original unopened MS Word for the Mac, v1.0 or something like that, in there). However, more items than that are missing in some Black Hole here. They'll probably surface after I've purchased a replacement. _B 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
