I'm totally feeling you on that one. My great grand-mother still has my great-grandfather's uniform, he was in the SS Panzer Divison (he was a tank commander during the invasion of france and during the battle of the bulge). She even still has his ring he got when he joined the SS as well as all his papers. For some reason, though, it's not something she breaks out and shows people outside our family. I'm guessing its because most people don't know the difference between the SS Panzer Divisions and the SS Deaths Head Division. The one my great-grandfather was in (tank divisions) was nothing like the murderers of the Deaths Head.
