EOD - bombs and bullets
Well, found a nifty set of Funk B vehicle crewman throat mics and control at the SOS at Folke Myrvangs table...I did not get a chance to discuss the differences between the responsibilities of MG Waffenmeisters and Gewehr Waffenmeisters, or ask if they rebarreled rifles outside of depots...:facepalm:

I did ask if Shooter Ike was as big a douche in real life as he seemed to be on the internet. Folke said bigger...

But I was thrilled to find the throat mics Thursday...I had picked up the headphones years ago, never thought I'd see the mics...

So I was able to do a foam head up with the complete set up...was real happy to put it together...now I just need a Stug III Ausf. G to go with them...:thumbsup:

Thanks guys...not sure why a couple of them seem to be on there side, they were all right side up when uploaded...

Here is a very interesting link which discusses the history and variations of the AFV headsets and throat mics, and how they were used...

Pretty complicated system, a lot more complicated than I would have thought...interesting how the throat mics will not pick up certain letter sounds....
 
Having coms (period) in your tank when the Soviets had none was a tremendous advantage!
 
Pretty cool piece that make a complete rig Mike. Glad to see you were able to get some cool stuff at the show.

This seems like a silly question but do these still work by chance just curious?
