Steve:-
You are doing your own thing and not hurting anybody so why give S**t about what others think. You collect memoribilia so what!!
We have a neighbor that has birthday parties,gives Christmas presents,Easter Baskets etc. to her C-A-T. She is a real nut case to me. She even has purchased a burial plot for the C-A-T - now that's weird!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think it's weird . I collect militaria AND have it written in my will that the cremains of my two Golden Retrievers are to be buried in my plot with me! One thing nobody need ever feel ashamed of is showing love for a beloved family pet. After all...there is NO WAY we can ever repay the unconditional love a dog brings to us in the short time we are blessed with their company on earth.
As far as militaria goes, I think most people have a designated room or area for displaying it..especially if you have items such as nazi flags, but then again I generally wouldn't invite anybody into my home if I thought they might be uptight about my collection. Like Steve and most other Collectors I am rather proud of my WWII stuff!
Another Nutcase,
