Combat Dealers Season 2 Episode 7 US/Holland

In season 2 episode 7 of Combat Dealers, titled "US/Holland," military antiques expert Bruce Crompton and his team travel to both the United States and Holland in search of rare and unique items from World War II.

Their first stop is in the United States, where they visit the legendary Delta Force operator Jeff Reid. Reid has an extensive collection of military memorabilia, and Bruce is hoping to find some rare items to add to his own collection. Reid shows them around his impressive collection, including a rare M1 carbine with a unique history. Bruce is impressed with the gun and manages to strike a deal to add it to his collection.

Next, the team travels to Holland to visit a private collector who has some potentially valuable items. They meet with the collector and begin looking through his collection, but they soon realize that many of the items are replicas. Eventually, they come across an authentic German howitzer shell that the collector is willing to part with for the right price.

The team then heads to an old Dutch airfield that was used during World War II. Here, they meet with another collector who has some unique items from the war. They discover a rare anti-tank gun and also come across a selection of American and German helmets from the war. Bruce is particularly interested in a German helmet with an unusual marking on it, and he manages to negotiate a good price for it.

As they continue their search in Holland, the team visits a museum that contains an extensive collection of military vehicles and weaponry. Here, they find an M24 Chaffee tank that has been restored to its original condition, and Bruce is interested in purchasing it. However, the tank is too big to fit in his workshop, so he decides to pass on it.

Their final stop in Holland is at an auction house, where they hope to find some rare and valuable items. They come across a rare MG 34 machine gun, but the bidding quickly gets out of hand and they are forced to drop out. However, they do manage to win a bid on a rare naval binoculars set.

Throughout the episode, Bruce and his team showcase their expertise in military history and their ability to negotiate deals for unique and rare items. With each item they add to their collection, they gain a deeper understanding of the history of World War II and the sacrifices that were made by those who fought in it.
