  • Johnny the Boy returns in just time to help out with the upcoming show, but before the intrepid trio of boozey boxopeners depart they need to loosen their elbows a bit.
    BOILERPLA... ER, GENERAL INFO:
    Tom, Deb, and Ob would like to thank everyone who have been kind enough to send in gifts. Seriously, you guys are just the best.
    I'd like to thank each and every one of you who take the time to watch DtC, and am very grateful to everyone who takes even more time out of their day to comment. In a perfect world Tom or Ob would be able to engage with everyone in the comment section, but alas the world is far from perfect. Tom doesn't know how (and refuses to learn) and Ob is something of a Luddite.
    FAQ & A:
    Q: I have a burning question about something in the video! What should I do?!
    A: An email sent directly to Tom is the best way to get your question answered, because while he most definitely reads each and every one of your comments, he hasn't quite gotten the hang of replying to them in the comment section, and is not likely to in the foreseeable future. Or ever. Seriously, he still calls RUclips "the U-TOOBZ".
    Tom's personal email is: herrwittmann@gmail.com
    You can also call him if you prefer (856-866-8733) between the hours of 9 AM and 4 PM, EST. This may be slightly more difficult because he's forever running around away from his desk, but it's worth a shot.
    Q: I have an amusing anecdote, scathing criticism, or heartfelt compliment that I deeply need to express and I require / demand / long for a personalized response! What should I do?
    A: See "A" above.
    Again, Tom's email is: herrwittmann@gmail.com

    Gentlemen, first of all, I'd like to commend you for your superbly entertaining and highly educational videos. I look forward to their release every Monday. I always enjoy your content, Mr. Wittman and Hob. Secondly, I'd like to mention how much I enjoyed hearing you mention my comment regarding the "lovely" city of Stockton, CA. It literally made my day, and Hob, I'm a guy. I'm a Marine Military Police vet, and love when I see police bayos and swords, but my favorite are the gorgets. Keep on doing the amazing duty you're doing for the collecting community. Cheers!!

    Mr. Wittmann, I just want to thank you for these videos. You and Obb always bring me a smile and chuckle. I'm new to the hobby, and though you may feel like you are just sipping and shooting the breeze, I'm sure I'm not alone in saying I have learned so much with every new unboxing. Plus I've saved tons of money--- it's all the fun of opening and admiring a new piece but much easier on the pocketbook! Anyhow, I hope you will continue these. They are a real treat (and also feels like a visit back home for me since I grew up in the Philly area). Keep up the great "work" 😅

    I think every so often if you get a low end starter piece, perhaps real damaged or worn, you have a give away to young collectors only. The hobby can only continue if young people have the interest in German militaria. Start with lower end tinnies, belt buckles in poor condition. We all started that way.
