My uncle faught in Pattons division during the Battle of the Buldge then all the way into southern Germany. He had some cool shite as well: big swastika flag, a Lueger with the Nazi embalm on it, and a deaths head ring he took off a dead SS officer.
And he earned to right to keep those things as trophies. Yet, if he were to die and someone were to discover that stuff, they may think he's a raging racist when in fact he was anything but.

Panther was pretty awesome and with a 75 firing APCR, pretty lethal.

I think death head was SS Das Tottenkopt(sp?) and they were pretty bad arse, did you see what it is worth?

Yeah the Totenkopf division was the 1st SS, some of the truly elite special forces, and they were made up of the strictly hardcore nazis IIRC. That stuff would fetch a much higher price than anything regular Wehrmacht.
Truly awful people, but they were absolute nightmares on the battlefield.
I was a German major in school and we learned some of the details of the war in one of my classes, but had an entire semester devoted to the "Auschwitzprozesse," the trials of SS personnel in the 60's. Crazy stuff.
