I old enough to remember the museum in the 80s when it was in an old stone farmhouse on the Fort. That amazing FM baton was in an old ass wooden framed class case like you’d see in an antique shop displaying pocket knives. It’s by far my favorite item on display at the new museum, which is spectacular.
I saw it on display at the 2000 or 2001 MAX military show in Erie, PA, along with Keitel's uniform he wore when signing the surrender and Himmler's throne from Wewelsburg Castle.
Several years ago, I purchase one small artifact from the Gettysburg Museum of Military History, a small sterling silver dessert fork from Goering's personal silverware service, certified by the Museum. It has his crossed Reichsmarschall's batons engraved on it as well as the proper silversmith's mark. It's really not much to look at, but its a piece of history and something that belonged to one of the most notorious German leaders during WWII. I have various other military and political artifacts from German, Japanese, Russian, and American forces from WWII. Makes history come alive. I still regret passing up an opportunity to obtain a complete wedding invitation from Field Marshal Blomberg's wedding that led to his downfall. It was apparently a leftover invitation that was never sent to anyone, with the inner and outer envelopes and what I believe was the small rectangle of thin rice paper they put over the engraved invitation to protect it. This was probably 4 or 5 years ago.
@@RobertRobinson-dy3rj - that's pretty neat, having a piece of history. About 5 years ago, I think, Hydrich's SS honor ring was on the market, but it was priced above my pay grade, as was some of Hitler's tableware. I absolutely don't advocate for them, I'm just fascinated by the historical significance of the artifacts, regardless which nation it came from. I have a beautiful WWII K98 Mauser, which, although in excellent condition, was sporterized by Interarms back in the 1960s, and although I would prefer the original unaltered condition, I have to admit that they did a hell of a good job, and it had one of the finest Monte Carlo stocks I've ever seen, and it shoots like a dream, one-inch groups at 40 yards. I also have a nice WWI broom handle C96, and a Nazi CZ 27 made in Prague in 1944, but this one is stainless steel finished, with the rarer one-piece wooden wraparound grips. German weapons generally are known for their excellent workmanship, although the weapons produced near the end of the war tend to show a significant decline in that regard. I don't have the money to afford one nor the desire to go through all the NFA hoops to own a genuine MP40, but that is the iconic German submachine gun of WWII, so when American Tactical came out with a .22 caliber semi-auto version about 10 years ago, I had to have one, and I believe I paid around $485 for it, and that reproduction, even though it's semi-auto and chambered in .22 long rifle and has a ridiculous phoney suppressor to camouflage the extended barrel to meet the legal requirements, is one of the most fun rifles I've ever owned. But the point I wanted to make is that several months after I bought it, I was at a gun show, and someone there had an entire box of genuine leather surplus MP40 slings that had been found in some warehouse in Germany, and even though they were never issued, given their age, they were in excellent condition, unlike many older leather - slings, holsters - that have spent nearly 70 years in some warehouse. Still supple, no cracks or dry rot. The crate they were found in had Waffen SS markings. The guy probably had 40 or 50 of them, and I got one for the bargain price of only $8. So my reproduction has a genuine Waffen SS sling intended for the real MP40, something I never expected to find in a million years, especially unissued, and certainly not for the price I paid. While not quite WWII, although the first ones came out at the tail end of the war, I have an SKS rifle, and it's markings indicate it is a 1956 Sino-Soviet type, in excellent condition, it had a milled receiver and is surprisingly well-made. Before I chanced upon this one, the only ones I had encountered were the cheap surplus Chinese Norinco SKSs that were plentiful and cheap back in the early 90s - they had stamped receivers and usually cost between $50-$70 at the time. And they were always drenched in cosmoline. I never bought one, these had not been treated well, very low-grade surplus, but several of my buddies did, and I had the opportunity to shoot them, and I was definitely not impressed. But the one I got only two years ago is a whole 'nuther animal. The quality of materials and workmanship is excellent, and it's an excellent shooting weapon. Since the SKS did manage to be developed shortly before the end of the war and saw some action very briefly before being replaced by the AK47, despite being a 1956 model, I still count it as part of my WWII collection, along with my Vietnam-era M1 carbine and modern govt model 1911 pistol. I even have the D-Day commemorative .30 cal. reproduction cartridges in reproduction packaging inside a wood box that Winchester put out a few years back. My dad had a nice Japanese Arisaka rifle that he found in the basement rafters of the farmhouse my parents bought in 1956. Unfortunately, he sold it back while I was still in high school. I'm 62, but my father served in the Pacific theater, and as a Sea Bee attached to the 3rd Marine division, he fought on Guam, Sai Pan, and Okinowa, among other islands. But he never wanted to talk about except on two occasions when I was already in my 40s. I had several uncles on both my mother's and father's sides who fought in Europe and an uncle who married my dad's younger sister, who was an Italian PO who had been put to work in a bakery in Barberton, Ohio where my aunt was also working. Both sides of my family are 100% Italian, by the way, my parents being first generation. My Uncle Tony fought in Italy, and actually was in my grandfather's village where he was born, in the Abbruzzi region, and met his future wife there, who he married after the war when she came to America. My Uncle Mike on my mom's side fought in the battle of the Bulge. So with my dad and uncles having fought in WWII, growing up it always fascinated me and I've got a whole library on various topics from the war. I should also mention that I have a German aunt who married my mom's brother who is a Holocaust survivor, who, at around age 4 saw her father and grandfather shot right in front of her. She most likely wasn't gassed because they were not Jewish, and she was the archetypal Aryan child, Nordic features, blond hair and blue eyes, but because of her father's pre-war political opposition to the Nazis, when the Nazis came to power, the family fled to Yugoslavia, and during the war, that's where the Nazis caught up with them, apparently having a long memory. My aunt is still alive, BTW. My father had a de-nazified former Waffen SS officer as an employee during the late 50s, who had shown him his blood group tattoo under his arm. I had heard about him growing up, but never met him until I was an adult, when this very cultured, well-dressed elderly gentleman with a cane and pronounced German accent came up to me and introduced himself at a relative's calling hours in the late 1980s. So many of the adult males in my family and in the small town I grew up in were WWII veterans, and growing up in the 60s, I loved TV shows like Combat, Rat Patrol, even the comedic ones, McHale's Navy and Hogan's Heroes. I've always loved history in general and having a connection to men who actually fought in WWII contributed to my fascination with that period in history. Sorry for the long reply, the topic always gets me on a roll, and I also type over 120 words/minute, lol!
IN 1982 in a suburb of London, I found a little store specialised in military souvenir and the guy was saling a Herman Goering's cap ! I have a photo of me with the cap on my head. he asked me 5000 pounds for it but I was 19 years old and my older sister refuse to pay this price for a nazi cap .....a big regret !
Me neither! I thought Karinhall and his house in the Berghof complex were the only two aside from his ancestral home. I can't see Goering as a beach person but I've read Sylt is a VERY nice place.

@@lablackzedthis one came from his train of antiquities captured in Berchtesgaden…supposedly those remaining at Carinhall were blown up with the lodge
@@randyluginbuhl9085 Excellent! So we know where at least ONE of the Goering toy trains eneded up! (I hope you've got documentation to go with it otherwise no-one's going to believe you.) After the Carinhall manor house was emptied of all Goering's collections the household staff were told they could take anything left behind before the estate was blown up. So some of the Maerklin trains may still be out there somewhere with their previous owner unknown.
An interesting historical video. A veteran brought to the former Great Western Gun and Collector's Show something in a brown paper bag. He wanted information about something he had brought back from the war. It was a thick silver standing photo frame with Herman Goring in his Reich Marshall uniform and I think holding the baton. At the top was the Goring Family Crest 6:38. There was an inscription ether on the front or the back of the photo. Someone who could read German said it read something like "Congratulations on your new home" and I think was addressed to his daughter or some other relative? I believe I once read he had given someone a home as a gift.
wow ! what a mini yet an awesome and fabulous portable museum that is simply jaw-dropping and dazzling. Alas, he could have kept and enjoyed that treasure had he not followed the "Great Fuhrer."
Great video, Goring loved the bling. The one-off 10:09 iron Cross was a bargain..and that merc going $2100 and change, unbelievable..a lot of that memorabilia goes for a fortune, even with that darkness attached to it.
Hermann was crazy to collect any kind of arts. His house Karinhall was like a museum. Eveything was stollen. His brother was much different. Albert Günther Göring (9 March 1895 - 20 December 1966) was a German engineer, businessman, and the younger brother of Hermann Göring (head of the German Luftwaffe, founder of the Gestapo, and leading member of the Nazi Party). In contrast to his brother, Albert was opposed to Nazism, and helped Jews and others persecuted in Nazi Germany. He was shunned in post-war Germany because of his family name, and died without any public recognition, receiving scant attention for his humanitarian efforts until decades after his death.d

Collector Whitmann from whitmann war relics collectors in the us has an original pair of boots from HG. With history, documents and initials and timeline where and how purchased. Look for it.
He’s a crook, I don’t believe half of his items were ever from where he claims. He used to buy Meissen Red Dragon on the open market pre-Internet and claim it was from Hitler’s Berghof. No provenance just his word, nowadays he just says from the era. Somebody must have called him out on it. He’s been cleaning, repairing and altering swords and daggers for decades.
I worked with a man on Longboat Key years ago he met Herman while guarding him during the Nuremberg trial . He said he was a nice man and gave him somethings before he committed suicide. Jack donated the items to a museum before he died. Jack was in the army but because of his young age at the time he did not have enough points to be able to go home after the war ended in Europe. So he was stationed there and was assigned Guard Duty at Nuremberg.
Hey, über solche Kommentare von meinen Landsleuten freue ich mich doch sehr gern. Ich habe überlegt über Rommel, Göbbels oder Himmler ein Video zu drehen. Gerne mache ich ein Video über SS Offiziere wie Himmler. Da es immer sehr kontrovers für viele ist, über SS Offiziere zu berichten, habe ich mich vorerst dagegen entschieden, ein Video von Himmler zu machen. Aber ich scheiß auf die Meinung anderer, da ich Objektiv berichte, weshalb ich gerne deinem Wunsch nachgehe. Kuss.
@@gear-of-war Ich finde es nicht kontrovers, ich meine es gehört nun mal zur deutschen Geschichte und man sollte es nicht todschweigen. Außerdem finde ich gerade das Thema 2. WK. sehr interessant. Wie kommst du denn an die ganzen Informationen?
45 years ago, I recall a war museum in Buena Park, California where Gorings twin pistols and holsters were on display along with his dress uniform. Id like to know what became of these items. The war museum I mentioned is long gone, the contents of which is also an unknown. Thanks, Mike
There is a guy in Texas that has Goring personal wrist watch with the back of it shows that I was presented to him. The guy in Texas his dad befriended Goring bc he was the guard that gave Goring bring him his hand cream, the rest is history...
he tried to save the small artistic italian heritage from Allied bombing by hiding it inside armed trains in the tunnels. he was great. he knew that there was a group that wanted to destroy culture, eradicate our past to impose a future made up of purely commercial values. the great historical importance of this man will be re-evaluated in the future. R.I.P.
Most of his metals were destroyed on purpose by the U.S. armed forces. By order of Dwight D. Eisenhower Any metals left over from the Nazi's got through, by mistake.
Was in aller Welt sind "East German D-Marks" ? 😀 ... und echt, die original von Hermann leergelutschte Zyanidkapsel war billiger als ... alles Andere ... überraschend!
what happened to his model train collection? it was bigger than a house. giant o gauge and larger it used to be in an entire top floor of a castle in Germany.
I'm glad that you watch content from Mr. Wittmann. Yeah, I will mention it in my second part. But k150$ is a high amount of money for "just boots", or what do you think?
@@gear-of-war could actually be higher, can't recall exactly. It's the boots he wore with his powder blue uniform during the battle of Britain. I have 8 caps from WW2 Germany. Gottlieb also has a white jacket of Goering.
@@jeffsquires6620 Yeah, you cannot say a fixed price, the price for those objects depends on the budget of the buyer. I know those boots, they have a stamp inside, wich is very authentic for us collectors.
@@jeffsquires6620 I have seen the videos about the ss coat, wittmann shipped to australia. In my opinion, the dudes who destroyed it should have paid the "over $150k" and should be punished. Dealing with History shouln't be a "bad mans hobby". Its a part of the history.
Hermann's G. daughter verify that it was her father's underwear, when I sent pictures of it..light blue color with Luftwaffe eagle on it in a front and initials, HG in back side...plus she said that Hermann never washde his rear after bathroom, so that is why there is brown stains on it....that is good details...to know..@@wirelessone2986
HERMAN GØRING - the story of a man that took over from Manfred Ricthofen after he was shot down and becauce of this role he became a hero after world war 1 . During the uprising in the Weimar republic Herman was shot 4 times in the chest and survived against all odds but became addicted to morphine and that addiction stayed with him all the way until the Nürnberg Trials at world war 2 s end - that was the problem for all that was in contact with Herman during the war , he had a very volatile behavior and people was scared to death being near him - strangely he put up a defense at the trials becauce he was become clean and stated that he wanted to be shot instead of the hangmanns nose but lost the case .
Thank you very intresting video, there is serious money here, the watch is interesting, which is still very beautiful even today, and the pistol is also beautiful I knew Göring like fuss and luxury unlike Adolf Hitler who, by the way, also lived in luxurious conditions in his private life, but not within the framework of as much public uproar as Göring It is said that Göring was addicted to intravenous drugs and sometimes dressed in women's clothes, but how much of this is true is a good question
Yeah i know, Thomas Wittmann, but he bought it from a little collection. I hoped, that someone commented it, it proves, that my subscribers are also watching the content of this militaria legend. You proved it.
You cannot refer the price of his little island house to his ownership, bro! It is "Sylt", where the even smaller neighboring cottage cost the same, although it was never owned by a fat historical figure! It is due to the "normal insanity", not to some weird morbid historical ... It is Germany´s "Resort of the Richest", like that "Somewoman's Wine Yard" to the USA (just at the moment not remembering that first name of the place where Obama and else have their homes in former slave owner's vacancy homes 🙂) ... it is an Island that is left by the "inhabitants" with the last boat or train till the next morning, cause none of them working as staff for those Richies could effort to live there ... yep, insanity, but not Göring related.
@@lablackzed Actually Goering's collection of WW1 airplanes is in a museum in Poland. They were on display in a Berlin museum until the city began to be bombed during the war. Goering had the planes moved east into Poland for safekeeping and they've been there ever since.
Stole what? Lol. Are you upset that an American as you say,, stole one of the biggest Nazi thieves toys? (Which he probably stole himself). Oh, the irony.
Goring gave these items to his captors, to build trust. Then when the time came. He was able to retrieve a cyanide capsule from his bag with their help. Maybe that was not done on purpose. But they did aid him. So, he didn't get hanged.
Just to say the iron cross was not a class like 1st or second best It was a type of how it was worn Meaning around the neck in ceremonies or in the field as a pin And is the same award but offered in different situations And so neither is of less value of the award apart from pricing to this day that is catorised as a class for selling purpose
Goering told this story to the US Army psychologist Dr. Gilbert while he was a prisoner and on trial at Nuremberg. Whether it's true or not I leave it up to you: "I was in Munich after the war and was going to join the Masons. Well, I had a few hours to kill so I went to a bar for some drinks and there was a hot blonde sitting at one of the tables. I went over to chat with her, picked her up and we spent the rest of the day together so I missed my Mason's meeting. The next day I went to hear Hitler speak and was VERY impressed with him and what he had to say so instead of the Masons I joined the National Socialists. So you see, the reason I'm sitting here in this cell is because of a hot blonde!" If the story's true you're right, he didn't choose his friends very well.
33 grand for Göring's Grand Cross is a bargain.
I know. If you had been a millionaire 10 years ago, you could have bought anything. Some prices are ridiculous by today's standards!
There were some found at the end of the war and people claim they were his. There’s only one or two with rock solid provenance, one was Capt Kubala’s captured after the war from Goering’s surrender. That cross is believed to have been in a house fire and lost.
Yes a normal knights cross isn’t far off that
Guess Goring was a James Bond fan!! He sure loved his Walther PPK!

But he never wanted to talk about except on two occasions when I was already in my 40s. I had several uncles on both my mother's and father's sides who fought in Europe and an uncle who married my dad's younger sister, who was an Italian PO who had been put to work in a bakery in Barberton, Ohio where my aunt was also working. Both sides of my family are 100% Italian, by the way, my parents being first generation. My Uncle Tony fought in Italy, and actually was in my grandfather's village where he was born, in the Abbruzzi region, and met his future wife there, who he married after the war when she came to America. My Uncle Mike on my mom's side fought in the battle of the Bulge. So with my dad and uncles having fought in WWII, growing up it always fascinated me and I've got a whole library on various topics from the war. I should also mention that I have a German aunt who married my mom's brother who is a Holocaust survivor, who, at around age 4 saw her father and grandfather shot right in front of her. She most likely wasn't gassed because they were not Jewish, and she was the archetypal Aryan child, Nordic features, blond hair and blue eyes, but because of her father's pre-war political opposition to the Nazis, when the Nazis came to power, the family fled to Yugoslavia, and during the war, that's where the Nazis caught up with them, apparently having a long memory. My aunt is still alive, BTW. My father had a de-nazified former Waffen SS officer as an employee during the late 50s, who had shown him his blood group tattoo under his arm. I had heard about him growing up, but never met him until I was an adult, when this very cultured, well-dressed elderly gentleman with a cane and pronounced German accent came up to me and introduced himself at a relative's calling hours in the late 1980s. So many of the adult males in my family and in the small town I grew up in were WWII veterans, and growing up in the 60s, I loved TV shows like Combat, Rat Patrol, even the comedic ones, McHale's Navy and Hogan's Heroes. I've always loved history in general and having a connection to men who actually fought in WWII contributed to my fascination with that period in history. Sorry for the long reply, the topic always gets me on a roll, and I also type over 120 words/minute, lol!
I have one of his calling cards that was in his pocket when the Americans captured him with his name and his crest embossed on the card
I have an AH dinner knife (informal from his Munich apartment)
You Lot are NUTS
IN 1982 in a suburb of London, I found a little store specialised in military souvenir and the guy was saling a Herman Goering's cap ! I have a photo of me with the cap on my head. he asked me 5000 pounds for it but I was 19 years old and my older sister refuse to pay this price for a nazi cap .....a big regret !
I never knew about his second house on the island.
Me neither! I thought Karinhall and his house in the Berghof complex were the only two aside from his ancestral home. I can't see Goering as a beach person but I've read Sylt is a VERY nice place.
Thanks for sharing
Goering had good taste in every thing!!!
just didn't want to pay for anything

Romans 6.23
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
John 3:16-21
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Mark 1.15
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Hebrews 11:6
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

This is one of the best Videos i‘ve ever seen
Lol stupid?
Me too!
you made a great video !!!!!!!!! we learn so many things we didn't know about H.G.
Thank you !!
I have a Goering Marklin Train Engine from his layouts in Carinhall
Brilliant any ideas on what happened to the rest of his train collection?
@@lablackzedthis one came from his train of antiquities captured in Berchtesgaden…supposedly those remaining at Carinhall were blown up with the lodge
@@randyluginbuhl9085 Thanks be interesting to see if anymore exist he had a beautiful set up .
@@randyluginbuhl9085 Excellent! So we know where at least ONE of the Goering toy trains eneded up!
(I hope you've got documentation to go with it otherwise no-one's going to believe you.)
After the Carinhall manor house was emptied of all Goering's collections the household staff were told they could take anything left behind before the estate was blown up. So some of the Maerklin trains may still be out there somewhere with their previous owner unknown.
@@wayneantoniazzi2706thank you! I have the documentation
An interesting historical video.
A veteran brought to the former Great Western Gun and Collector's Show something in a brown paper bag. He wanted information about something he had brought back from the war. It was a thick silver standing photo frame with Herman Goring in his Reich Marshall uniform and I think holding the baton. At the top was the Goring Family Crest 6:38. There was an inscription ether on the front or the back of the photo. Someone who could read German said it read something like "Congratulations on your new home" and I think was addressed to his daughter or some other relative? I believe I once read he had given someone a home as a gift.
His baton would be number 1 in my opinion.
I believe that resides at West Point Military Academy now.
wow ! what a mini yet an awesome and fabulous portable museum that is simply jaw-dropping and dazzling. Alas, he could have kept and enjoyed that treasure had he not followed the "Great Fuhrer."
Danke für die Abklärungen
Great video, Goring loved the bling. The one-off 10:09 iron Cross was a bargain..and that merc going $2100 and change, unbelievable..a lot of that memorabilia goes for a fortune, even with that darkness attached to it.
More please!!
Hermann was crazy to collect any kind of arts. His house Karinhall was like a museum. Eveything was stollen. His brother was much different. Albert Günther Göring (9 March 1895 - 20 December 1966) was a German engineer, businessman, and the younger brother of Hermann Göring (head of the German Luftwaffe, founder of the Gestapo, and leading member of the Nazi Party). In contrast to his brother, Albert was opposed to Nazism, and helped Jews and others persecuted in Nazi Germany. He was shunned in post-war Germany because of his family name, and died without any public recognition, receiving scant attention for his humanitarian efforts until decades after his death.d

Most people never knew about Gorings brother. Sort of like the Hunter Biden today.
In war, territory that is conquered can be plundered. It is not stolen. Americans, British, & Soviets certainly did so to Germany after the war.
@@deitrichvonkeitel2613 Many would call that 'pay back'. Others may say 'you get what you give'.

What an absolutely gorgeous home just off of a scenic place, it’s just breathtaking, would have loved to see the inside ❤x
We salute our brave comrade!!
I have a Cigar box from his private collection, from Carin Hall!
I wonder what Rudolph Hess' unibrow would sell for at auction.
Collector Whitmann from whitmann war relics collectors in the us has an original pair of boots from HG. With history, documents and initials and timeline where and how purchased. Look for it.
He’s a crook, I don’t believe half of his items were ever from where he claims. He used to buy Meissen Red Dragon on the open market pre-Internet and claim it was from Hitler’s Berghof. No provenance just his word, nowadays he just says from the era. Somebody must have called him out on it. He’s been cleaning, repairing and altering swords and daggers for decades.
Wittmann
GREAT VIDEO!
Very cool 😎 Thank you!
Great video, Thanks!!!
My buddy a few years ago sold a revolver owned by wild bill Hickok for 130,000.00
The family turned down 230,000.00 5 years prior.
I worked with a man on Longboat Key years ago he met Herman while guarding him during the Nuremberg trial . He said he was a nice man and gave him somethings before he committed suicide. Jack donated the items to a museum before he died. Jack was in the army but because of his young age at the time he did not have enough points to be able to go home after the war ended in Europe. So he was stationed there and was assigned Guard Duty at Nuremberg.
It's true Goering could be quite the charmer. For an SOB he had a great personality.
Some real bargains for whoever bought these,the prices have skyrocketed for this stuff,...Great Investment!!!
Nice of Arnold to do the audio
kannst du so ein video über Heinrich Himmler oder Reinhard Heydrich machen? Würde mich sehr interessieren. Es war ein gutes Video.
Hey, über solche Kommentare von meinen Landsleuten freue ich mich doch sehr gern. Ich habe überlegt über Rommel, Göbbels oder Himmler ein Video zu drehen. Gerne mache ich ein Video über SS Offiziere wie Himmler. Da es immer sehr kontrovers für viele ist, über SS Offiziere zu berichten, habe ich mich vorerst dagegen entschieden, ein Video von Himmler zu machen. Aber ich scheiß auf die Meinung anderer, da ich Objektiv berichte, weshalb ich gerne deinem Wunsch nachgehe. Kuss.
@@gear-of-war Ich finde es nicht kontrovers, ich meine es gehört nun mal zur deutschen Geschichte und man sollte es nicht todschweigen. Außerdem finde ich gerade das Thema 2. WK. sehr interessant. Wie kommst du denn an die ganzen Informationen?
gutes Video!! mehr davon
Danke dir✌️😁
45 years ago, I recall a war museum in Buena Park, California where Gorings twin pistols and holsters were on display along with his dress uniform. Id like to know what became of these items. The war museum I mentioned is long gone, the contents of which is also an unknown. Thanks, Mike
Goring had great taste and knew what he wanted to steal from others to keep for himself.
I always wanted to acquire one of his tie broaches.
There is a guy in Texas that has Goring personal wrist watch with the back of it shows that I was presented to him.
The guy in Texas his dad befriended Goring bc he was the guard that gave Goring bring him his hand cream, the rest is history...
A great pilot if not politician
Hermann Goering had also a big silver box with Frankfurter sausages.
the first auction price for the Blue Goose is insane!
ima say what everyone is thinking. it belongs in a museum!
Bling King! Love it! Hermann Göring rocks 100%! 💪🔥💥♥️👍🌹
I saw goring’s golf clubs a number of times in the early 1980’s in Los Angeles..Owned by a very popular German Big Band leader…long dead…
Sehr interessant!
I have talked to and seen several of Herman's pistols. It seems that a lot of collectors have one.
he tried to save the small artistic italian heritage from Allied bombing by hiding it inside armed trains in the tunnels. he was great. he knew that there was a group that wanted to destroy culture, eradicate our past to impose a future made up of purely commercial values. the great historical importance of this man will be re-evaluated in the future. R.I.P.
Talk about his platinum pistols
great man😮
What happened to Hermann's toy trains?
Goring also has pocket watch and revolver pistol
I wonder what happened to his spare grand crosses ?
Most of his metals were destroyed on purpose by the U.S. armed forces. By order of Dwight D. Eisenhower Any metals left over from the Nazi's got through, by mistake.
He had spares of every medal I wonder if one is in a trunk in an attic
@@wirelessone2986 probably. Some GI would of helped himself 😁😁👍👍👍👍
Was in aller Welt sind "East German D-Marks" ? 😀 ...
und echt, die original von Hermann leergelutschte Zyanidkapsel war billiger als ... alles Andere ... überraschend!
what happened to his model train collection? it was bigger than a house. giant o gauge and larger it used to be in an entire top floor of a castle in Germany.
Whitman, DOWN IN THE CELLAR. Has a pair of military boots owned by Goering. He turned down 150k for them.
I'm glad that you watch content from Mr. Wittmann. Yeah, I will mention it in my second part. But k150$ is a high amount of money for "just boots", or what do you think?
@@gear-of-war could actually be higher, can't recall exactly. It's the boots he wore with his powder blue uniform during the battle of Britain. I have 8 caps from WW2 Germany. Gottlieb also has a white jacket of Goering.
@@jeffsquires6620 Yeah, you cannot say a fixed price, the price for those objects depends on the budget of the buyer. I know those boots, they have a stamp inside, wich is very authentic for us collectors.
@@gear-of-war the prices are climbing as we lose the last of the veterans. What's your opinion on the new laws in Australia.
@@jeffsquires6620 I have seen the videos about the ss coat, wittmann shipped to australia. In my opinion, the dudes who destroyed it should have paid the "over $150k" and should be punished. Dealing with History shouln't be a "bad mans hobby". Its a part of the history.
hervorragender Göringhumor. Min Lütten
A Goering office used Volkswagen beetle was being sold on FB.
I have few pairs of Hermann;s original underwear, anybody knows how much it would cost?
Hey, there was once sold a piece for $3500; therefore i would say minimum $3,5k-$5,5k
Are there shit stains on them?
Goering dna shit lol
I've seen people claiming to sell Eva brains u underwear it better have a lock time provenance
Hermann's G. daughter verify that it was her father's underwear, when I sent pictures of it..light blue color with Luftwaffe eagle on it in a front and initials, HG in back side...plus she said that Hermann never washde his rear after bathroom, so that is why there is brown stains on it....that is good details...to know..@@wirelessone2986
I own a pair of his gold cufflinks.
The members of the 101th stole a lot of items in Germany, which was clearly reported in many videos.
HERMAN GØRING - the story of a man that took over from Manfred Ricthofen after he was shot down and becauce of this role he became a hero after world war 1 . During the uprising in the Weimar republic Herman was shot 4 times in the chest and survived against all odds but became addicted to morphine and that addiction stayed with him all the way until the Nürnberg Trials at world war 2 s end - that was the problem for all that was in contact with Herman during the war , he had a very volatile behavior and people was scared to death being near him - strangely he put up a defense at the trials becauce he was become clean and stated that he wanted to be shot instead of the hangmanns nose but lost the case .
What was the stick that Goring brought along all the time?
How on earth did the Blue Goose Mercedes get into such awful condition before it was restored??
The Terminator is still Alive ,,,, He’s Back
Thank you very intresting video, there is serious money here, the watch is interesting, which is still very beautiful even today, and the pistol is also beautiful
I knew Göring like fuss and luxury unlike Adolf Hitler who, by the way, also lived in luxurious conditions in his private life, but not within the framework of as much public uproar as Göring
It is said that Göring was addicted to intravenous drugs and sometimes dressed in women's clothes, but how much of this is true is a good question
What did the Walther fetch ?
Some time I will drink french Brandy with ”Karaffe mit Goerings Hauswappen“.
nettes Video😊
An honorable man till the end.
Are you having a laugh???
The pilot observers badge in gold with diamonds looks like a modern fake. Eric campion bought Gorings medals after the war and had his original badge.
He had several of everything including that badge
Tom Whitman has his boots.
Yeah i know, Thomas Wittmann, but he bought it from a little collection. I hoped, that someone commented it, it proves, that my subscribers are also watching the content of this militaria legend. You proved it.
@@gear-of-war I believe it was a museum auction.
Yeah, you are right. Those boots are amazing. The price also😅. But it is a very historic piece of history. I will mention it in my 2nd part.
Where is the Luger 08 with engravement that Gøring also had - have seen the gun in varios youtube videos and its in america
I keep hearing Rainer Wolfcastle....
An evil man but I did like his choice of cars. The blue mercedes is stunning.
Shouldn't this be given back to Germany since it was stolen by GIs?
No.
@@mikalnaylor do you support theft?
I have 40mm door glass from his 37 Mercedes. (Right rear door).
You cannot refer the price of his little island house to his ownership, bro! It is "Sylt", where the even smaller neighboring cottage cost the same, although it was never owned by a fat historical figure! It is due to the "normal insanity", not to some weird morbid historical ... It is Germany´s "Resort of the Richest", like that "Somewoman's Wine Yard" to the USA (just at the moment not remembering that first name of the place where Obama and else have their homes in former slave owner's vacancy homes 🙂) ... it is an Island that is left by the "inhabitants" with the last boat or train till the next morning, cause none of them working as staff for those Richies could effort to live there ... yep, insanity, but not Göring related.
Only 30k for a grand cross? Ive seen a rk with eichenlaub go for 30k
He was head of the Luftwaffe so why no airplanes for sale?
His collection of plane's are in Sweden I think 🤔
They were all shot down
das gut
@@lablackzed Actually Goering's collection of WW1 airplanes is in a museum in Poland. They were on display in a Berlin museum until the city began to be bombed during the war. Goering had the planes moved east into Poland for safekeeping and they've been there ever since.

Herman göring did not die in 1946 he went to texas and died on 2002
Era uneroe come tutti i tedeschi🎉🎉🎉
My man Hermann liked the finer things
Who was the American criminal who stole it from goring
Stole what? Lol. Are you upset that an American as you say,, stole one of the biggest Nazi thieves toys? (Which he probably stole himself). Oh, the irony.
From who did Goring stole the money to buy it…….
Goring gave these items to his captors, to build trust. Then when the time came. He was able to retrieve a cyanide capsule from his bag with their help. Maybe that was not done on purpose. But they did aid him. So, he didn't get hanged.
Loool
@@amberlopez7477 such bullshit kiddoe
We goring tool post cnc Auckland 😊
What happened to his infamous baton?
West Point
Any word on Gorings marshal baton ?
West Point.
Just to say the iron cross was not a class like 1st or second best
It was a type of how it was worn
Meaning around the neck in ceremonies or in the field as a pin
And is the same award but offered in different situations
And so neither is of less value of the award apart from pricing to this day that is catorised as a class for selling purpose
Great footage.
Horrible person yet he had a good taste for esthetics.
You didn't mention anything about the stolen works of art in his possession.
I think we are starting to realize we've been lied to. They were the good side, and now we are being exterminated via mass migration.
Is that guy from Germany ? Sind sie aus Deutschland i hear som very good ausprache
I miss him...
Goering, goering, gone!
The car is nice and might be worth the price just based on the car not the former owner
Goering didn’t choose his friends very well…
Goering told this story to the US Army psychologist Dr. Gilbert while he was a prisoner and on trial at Nuremberg. Whether it's true or not I leave it up to you:
"I was in Munich after the war and was going to join the Masons. Well, I had a few hours to kill so I went to a bar for some drinks and there was a hot blonde sitting at one of the tables. I went over to chat with her, picked her up and we spent the rest of the day together so I missed my Mason's meeting.
The next day I went to hear Hitler speak and was VERY impressed with him and what he had to say so instead of the Masons I joined the National Socialists. So you see, the reason I'm sitting here in this cell is because of a hot blonde!"
If the story's true you're right, he didn't choose his friends very well.
is that arnie?
I wish i was rich i won this auction
so do I.
