Preservation Very Rusty German Helmet. Cleaning in Oxalic Acid
Рет қаралды 211,212
3 жыл бұрынIn this video, I will show full preservation of the German Helmet M42 size 62 from the World War II. This helmet has been in the ground for 77 years. As a result of the restoration, the original paint and the color of the helmet were preserved.
No propaganda and extremism. Only history!
The demonstration of Nazi symbols in my videos is not propaganda of fascism, Nazism, etc. They are demonstrated exclusively for historical and scientific purposes.

@@boominS10 I do not know the answer to all of the destruction, it is happening here in Canada as well. Whether those statues represent true criminals or not, they should have plaques made to explain the history. I am not saying to keep these statues in the open, perhaps display them in a museum. For example... In Winnipeg Manitoba there is The Canadian Museum for Human Rights, it displays many horrible things that have happened in the past; not only in Canada. This way history is not forgotten and people can chose whether to see it or not.

@@boominS10 yes all nazis should be removed from history because they killed millions of innocent people. Those statues are of people who owned and killed black people. Name the schools and put up statues of real heroes up like Pat Tillman or Henry Johnson. Not some crusty old bigot from the civil war.
