Welcome to Der Freiwillige Military Antiques.  Our goal is to offer you, the discerning collector, a selection of quality, original, affordable militaria.  We specialize in German Third Reich items, but we’ll also offer American militaria featuring items from the Civil War era.  We concentrate on normal combat awards and items that will help new collectors build their collections or add items to seasoned collections.

We do not deal in reproductions or fakes.  When we consider a new item for acquisition, if it doesn’t look right or feel right, we don’t get it!  The key to getting what you want is knowing what you are getting.  Please free feel to contact us with questions you may have about any item.  Please see our Information Page for collector information and details about original Third Reich items.

100% ORIGINAL MONEY BACK GUARANTEE – You can shop here with confidence.  We offer a 100% lifetime money back guarantee that our items are original to the time periods stated.  If you’re not satisfied with the authenticity of any item you order, just return it insured with your written detailed reasons for dissatisfaction and we’ll refund your purchase price (minus shipping/handling/insurance costs and credit card fees if applicable).  Please keep your receipt for return!  If you wish to return an item it must be in the original condition as sold; items cannot be accepted for refund if they have been cleaned, disassembled, or modified in any way.  Sorry, no returns on modern reference books!

Please see the Third Reich Paper Items section for a nice selection of original photos and postcards, along with original books of the Third Reich period.


Also check the US and Other Countries section for some rarely offered Civil War photographs.

Disclaimer: this is not a revisionist site.  We offer Third Reich items for the serious collector of World War II memorabilia.  We do not endorse or condone the actions or ideals of Adolf Hitler or the Third Reich.
