The Army Roll of Honour 1939-1945 unfortunately records his surname as “Freston” .
Private 5764130 Arthur B Freston of the Royal Norfolk Regiment who died in June 1940 in the French and Belgium campaign, was recorded as born and resident Norwich.
There is no obvious Soldiers Will or Civil Probate for this man.
Birth and family
The birth of an Arthur Benjamin Preston was recorded in the July to September quarter, (Q3) of 1903 in the Norwich District.
On the 1911 census the 7 year old “Authur” Preston, born Norwich was recorded at 35 Fishergate, Norwich. This was the household of his parents, Benjamin, (aged 43 and a Carter from Norwich) and Alice, (aged 39 and from Norwich). The couple have been married 18 years and have had 10 children, of which 8 were still.
Alice Emily…….aged 18………..born Norwich
Nellie…………..aged 16…………born Norwich…Rewinder in a Silk Factory
Louisa………….aged 12…………born Norwich
Lilian………….aged 10………….born Norwich
Herbert………..aged 6……………born Norwich
Alfred…………aged 4……………born Norwich
Fredrick……….aged 2……………born Norwich.
They also have a 5 year old boarder staying with them.
The most likely marriage of his parents was that of a Benjamin Preston to an Alice Morris in the October to December quarter, (Q4), of 1892.
Post August 1911 it became compulsory when registering a birth in England and Wales to also record the mothers maiden name. A search of the General Registrars Office Index of Births for England and Wales 1911 – 2006 produces many matches for children registered with the surname Preston, mothers maiden name Morris, but three in particular stand out – all recorded in the Norwich District and so possibly siblings of Arthur.
Donald……..July to September 1911
Rose………..January to March 1913
Irene……….April to June 1916
Other family baptisms
At St Clement with St Edmund, Norwich.
Alice Emily Preston, born 24th February 1893, was baptised 2nd November 1895. Parents were Benjamin, a Labourer, and Anna. The family lived at Thompsons Yard.

(I suspect this Herbert died and the family re-used the name as the age doesn’t tie up with the 1911 census details. The same census also notes that they have lost two of their children.)
Louisa Preston, no date of birth recorded, privately baptised 28th March 1899. Parents were Benjamin, a Labourer, and Anna. The family lived at 32 Fishergate.

Military Unit
The 2nd Norfolks were stationed in Gibraltar for 1936 – 1939 at the time that Arthur was “Colonial Rifle Champion”, while the 1st Battalion was in India for much of the 1930’s until 1940. He could have served with either Battalion.
With the outbreak of war the 2nd Battalion were already back in England and were immediately dispatched to France as part of the 2nd Division. They remained there through the winter of 1939 and spring of 1940 during the so-called “Phoney War”, although one of the Battalions Officers received a Military Cross as a result of a clash with a German patrol on the border in January. With the German attack on the 10th May 1940, the British initially moved forward to prepared positions, but soon found themselves in danger of being surrounded. Then began a series of retreats behind hurriedly prepared defensive lines, usually based on the canal and river network. While holding a line on the River Escaut, south of Tournai, on the 21st May 1940, Company Sergeant-Major Gristock won a Victoria Cross.

On the 23rd they were pulled back to the canal line from Aire to La Bassee.
Selected extracts from “Dunkirk:Fight to the Last Man” by Hugh Sebag-Montefiore
When the Royal Norfolks arrived at Locon, the officers believed that they were going to have a rest during what was expected to be a period in reserve. However, while Major Lisle Ryder, their thirty-seven year old acting commanding officer, was reconnoitring, his car and the following vehicle were fired at on both sides of the canal. It was no surprise, therefore, when, in the course of the meeting convened at their temporary Locon headquarters during the night of 24-5 May, Ryder told the company commanders that they must abandon any thought of having a good sleep: instead they must prepare for action.
4 Brigade was to be the central unit within 2 Division’s sector on the canal line, with 6 Brigade on its right, and 5 Brigade on its left. The Royal Norfolks ended up in the centre of 4 Brigade’s position. The battalion’s companies were to move up to the canal line immediately, in the dark, flushing out any Germans they found in their path, and were to establish foxhole positions on the northern and eastern canal banks between Avelette and the Bois de Paqueaut. It would have been a difficult assignment for a full-strength well rested battalion, but it was immeasurably harder for an understrength unit whose men were suffering from varying degrees of sleep deprivation. At this point, the battalion consisted of just 450 officers and other ranks.
Ryder’s original plan required the battalion’s headquarters to be moved at the same time as the companies to a village enticingly named Le Paradis (Paradise). However, while moving in the dark, without lights, signposts or large-scale maps, Hastings, who had been given the task of selecting the site for the new HQ, lost his way, and ended up with the headquarters personnel near Le Cornet Malo. It was only during the next night, 25-6 May, that the fateful decision was made to move the headquarters again to Le Paradis. Little did the officers who made the decision realize that life there was going to be anything but paradise.
Although several attacks were put in on the Royal Norfolks’ section of the canal line on 25 May, and small bridgeheads were established on the north-east bank, officers at the battalion headquarters believed that the companies, after suffering their first casualties, were still holding their own. That was thought to be the case notwithstanding the fact that during the previous night two of the front-line companies, which had also got lost in the dark, ended up mistakenly digging in alongside a tributary of the canal rather than on the canal line itself. Like the battalion’s headquarters personnel, the “lost” companies reached their correct positions on the night of 25-6 May, and it was only the next morning that Ryder ordered that steps should be taken to form a true picture of his front line. One of these involved sending Hastings forwards to the crossroads at Le Cornet Malo to find out what had happened to A Company, on the Royal Norfolks’ right.
“At the cross roads I was surprised to see [2nd Lieutenant] Slater, who was now commanding A Company [after Captain Yallop’s death on 25 May], and a group of six or seven men standing helplessly around him,” wrote Hastings. “Slater told me his position up by the canal had been overrun by tanks, and the company had been ‘minced up’. All that remained, he said, were the few men standing about outside, and some others who were wounded, that he had got inside a building on the…corner of the cross roads. I went…and looked at the wounded.
Before I left, [Lieutenant] Edgeworth, commanding B Company [the company now holding the front on A Company’s left], came running up….His Company too was much reduced in numbers…He had only 19 men. He had a position along the line of a hedge 200 or 300 yards in front of the cross roads. There were no tanks about at the moment, but he thought there were Germans in a village just beyond his position.”
Hastings drove back to Le Paradis to tell Ryder what he had done, only to discover that
“he did not agree to Slater’s recall, and was angry that I had done it. ‘Go back,’ he said. ‘Put the two companies together, and command them yourself.’ The cross roads, he told me, were to be held at all costs – to the last man, and the last round. He concluded his orders by saying: ‘Keep them back with your own pistol if necessary.’
On the day
Because so few men from the front-line companies survived, it has been impossible to describe all the nail-biting incidents that doubtless took place as these men stood their ground against the much stronger enemy troops and armour. However, the account written by Captain Hallett, whom Hastings had left in charge of the men he had been directing, at least gives some idea of what they must all have to endure.
Unlike Hastings, Hallett appears to have been relatively fresh, which enabled him to take a much more proactive approach to his command. Shortly after Hastings had departed during the morning of 269 May, Hallett led a patrol forward to the southern side of Le Cornet Malo and fired at Germans he saw approaching from the direction of the canal. “It was a pity we had no mortars, or we could have bombed them beautifully”, he reported enthusiastically.
Nevertheless Hallet’s group’s rifle and Bren-gun fire must have stopped the Germans in their tracks. As his account records, when he ordered his men to advance again, they did so without opposition, and captured a wounded German soldier, who was in a ditch, plus some others who also surrendered without a fight. “After all the frightful things the troops had threatened, it was amusing to see how well they treated the [wounded] prisoner,” Hallett noted. “They gave him cigarettes and chocolate, and ….[when] I started to question him……..he was quite ready to talk. He said that there was about a division against us across the canal, as I’d expected, instead of the odd hundred or so that I’d been told.”
The Germans attacked again as it became dark, driving back Hallett’s forward posts. Then, according to Hallett, “they started digging hard just beyond the village where we could hear them all night, [and] just before midnight I heard unmistakable sounds of tanks”. This prompted Hallett to take the initiative once again, and after sending out a small patrol, whose report enabled him to work out exactly where the Germans were digging, he gave orders for the mortars that had become available to be fired at them. “From the shouts and shrieks, there must have been some direct hits,” Hallett observed.
But, as Hallett’s account confirms, that was the last time he was able to impose his will on the battle:
“As it began to get light, [at] about 5 a.m. [on 27 May], the tanks arrived, huge fellows, and about a dozen. I phoned Battalion HQ….Then they cut the line. This was the last message I go to the Battalion. The forward section came in, leaving their guns, and worse, their AT [anti-tank] rifles. And for a bit there was…..chaos…..Eventually we had a brainwave, and ran out below the tanks’ angle of fire, and put Mills grenades in the tracks. It did not do the tanks much harm, but [it] frightened the drivers, and they ditched them. We got the LMG [light machine-gun] back in position, and the AT rifles mounted.
Luckily the German infantry were a long way behind their tanks, so when they came, we were ready for them. And come they did, in masses. I never believed I’d see troops advancing shoulder to shoulder across the open, but these men did, and suffered accordingly. The Brens fired till they were red-hot, and also the riflemen. But we [also] suffered heavily, and in the end, I was left in a big farm with an attic, with an AT Rifle, and a rifle for myself, and one rifleman to help.”
After some further exchanges of fire, even Hallett’s last remaining helper was killed, and he himself was captured while trying to escape.
Back at Duriez Farm, the state of the front-line battalions was monitored from messages received in the ‘signal office’ in the cellar under the farmhouse kitchen. A similar pattern of signals emanated from each company. First, messages came through to say they were holding. Then a more desperate voice, which could barely be heard above the firing in the background, informed the commanding officer that they were involved in hand-to-hand fighting. Sometimes the signalman at the other end of the wire had a personal chat with his mate in the battalion signal office. When B Company was about to be overrun, their signalman Alf Blake confided to Bob Brown, the nineteen-year-old telegraphist: “I’m afraid we’re for it. Don’t forget me. We’ve had some good times together. I don’t know whether I’ll ever be seeing you again.”
It was the last message from B Company, and the last time Bob Brown ever heard Alf Blake speak. He must have been killed shortly afterwards, among the many who did not survive long enough to surrender. There was no time for Brown to be sentimental: as soon as the line went dead, he shouted up the stairs to the officers in the kitchen, “The line to B Company’s been cut.”
Before the lines to the companies were cut, it was discovered that the Germans were attacking in two main lines: between the Royal Norfolks’ left and 5 Brigade, and in the area held by Hallett and his men. After overrunning the front-line companies, the German troops were free to concentrate on Battalion Headquarters, which they did with a vengeance approaching Duriez Farm from the north, the east and the west in spite of the fire put down by the men in the courtyard. “We engaged the enemy furiously,” Long reported.
“[Then] suddenly the enemy on the right stopped advancing, and…ran back towards the wood. We had one moment of exultation. We felt the counter-attack had been successful somewhere, and the German line was falling back. But our exultation in one moment turned to consternation.
A sudden flurry of noise and rattle of shots was heard in front of the Battalion HQ [i.e. to the south]. A section of German motorcyclists had rushed up the road to Bn HQ. They were dealt with effectively, and fell back on the RAP [Regimental Aid Post] buildings [a short distance to the east, across the road from the farmhouse], leaving 2 dead in the road. From the RAP they filled the air with shots, and it seemed impossible to get at them….It was a very awkward moment which was saved by RSM [Regimental Sergeant-Major] Cockaday. He seized a Bren, and rushed forward into the open. Taking up a position, he opened fire with a gun. In the course of this, he was wounded”
Thanks to Cockaday, who was backed up by Ryder and Long, the Germans were eventually driven away from the south side of the farm, and an escape route, in theory at least, was kept open. Long attempted to secure it by ordering some of the men to hold a couple of neighbouring houses as outposts. However, the difficulties Long experienced in going to and from these houses must have convinced him that salvation might well be impossible. According to Long, the “piece of open country [between the battalion and the houses]….was whipped with fire. The route [I took] was the only one possible, and I’m damned if I liked it. This was the only time I felt frightened. However we got there, and lost no men.”
Holding these outposts became even more problematic when the brigade’s artillery, probably reacting to a telephone call from Long telling the brigadier where the Germans were attacking, began to shell them. It was a frightening moment. After holding off the enemy so courageously, it seemed as if they were about to be annihilated by British guns. The barrage was only stopped when Long dashed back through another hail of bullets to telephone through an urgent request to the brigade to put an end to their unwelcome ‘support’.
No sooner had the guns been silenced then another problem emerged. “The men seemed to lose heart without anyone to command them,” Long wrote later. “So once more, I dodged back again, and got the men in position and cheered up.” However, the situation in the outposts was only stabilized after he had placed an NCO in each of the two houses he had ordered his men to hld. Long was then free to return to the farm.
Hastings has described what he witnessed there:-
“At one moment I am watching the movements of the enemy through glasses through a hole in the roof. Another moment I am firing a rifle. Now I am firing a Bren gun which stops…A party of Germans try to get past at short range. Everyone that can get a rifle gets some shooting. Richardson has a German Tommy gun taken from the dead motorcyclist in the road…Now the outlook is good. Now again it is bad…Now I am putting the Battalion papers and war diary in a sack and weighting it with stones, and tying it up ready to sink it in the farm pond. Now I am looking down from an upper window on the dead German motorcyclist who still lies in the road with his arm outstretched. A stream of blood has run from his head to the gutter. As I look, I see a soldier steal out at the peril of his life, and remove the wrist watch from the dead man’s hand. He slips back as quickly and quietly as he slipped out…
Charles Long is a great success with the men. He is telling awful lies, but he talks as if he himself believes what he says….The men love him…He set a fine example by his disregard of personal danger, and certainly did more than any other officer to keep morale at a high level. He has a breezy manner, was always cheerful, and full of unbounded optimism…All this he managed to convey to the troops….
Something that looks like a tank approaches. Where is the anti-tank rifle? It is lying out in the road. I go to get it. A private soldier comes after me. “Let me get it Sir” he says. I don’t let him, but I am touched at his offering. It has a hole in the side of the barrel, but it can still be fired. The tank stops behind a hillock. Its top can just be seen….It’s an armoured troop carrier….
The CO is ringing up Brigade. He says: “I shall not ring you up again. We are doing very well.”….I think he [Ryder] is about to crack. He says to me: “When I think of the magnificent battalion I took over only a few days ago”….He is unable to go on. I wonder why he does not abandon our position. I think we could still get some men away safely. We both know now there is no hope of holding on much longer. However, he says [that] others are depending on us. I think he knows more than I do. I glance at the Battalion papers in the sack. He nods his head, and I pitch the sack into the farm pond. It doesn’t sink. I throw a bicycle on top of it. Now it sinks.
Now I am going round counting up rounds of ammunition. I see Richardson. He is quiet and very grim. He is watching the development of the enemy’s attack from the side of the troop carrier. I am getting ammunition collected from the rifles and pouches of the wounded. Bren gun magazines must be broken up and the rounds distributed. We are very short of ammunition, but everyone has a few rounds.”

From “Dunkirk:Fight to the Last Man” by Hugh Sebag-Montefiore

On the night of 26-27 May 1940, the German force which included the 1st Battalion, 2nd SS 'Totenkopf' Regiment, moved up the south bank of the La Bassee Canal. It attacked across the canal in a northerly direction with Bailleul as its objective. In the area immediately north of the canal they were held by the Norfolk Battalion in much depleted strength because of the previous fighting and the physical exhaustion of the men. The Battalion and the Royal Scots were holding the villages of Riez du Vinage, Le Cornet Malo and Le Paradis. The Battalion Headquarters was in Le Paradis.
During the night, the 2nd SS Infantry Regiment crossed the canal using the ruins of the bridge Pont Supplie. They met heavy British resistance and advanced very slowly and at high cost. They eventually occupied Riez du Vinage and spent the night in the Bois de Paqueaut.
At dawn on 27 May 1940, the German forces emerged from the wood and began attacking Le Cornet Malo. No. 3 Company was in the centre, with No. 2 on the right and No. 1 on the left in semi-reserve. The British troops defended very stubbornly. According to a German account four officers and one hundred and fifty men were killed and eighteen officers and four hundred and eighty men wounded of this and another action. Fritz Knoechlein's company suffered the greatest casualties. With the village of Le Cornet Malo burning and its fields dotted with dead, the Germans attacked Le Paradis.
The British Battalion's last contact with Brigade took place at 11.30am. They were then told that they were isolated and must fend for themselves. They had fallen back upon the Battalion Headquarters situated in a farm on the Rue du Paradis. This road formed the boundary between the Norfolks and the Royal Scots who had been fighting on the right of the Norfolks. The location of the Battalion Headquarters on the the boundary between these two forces, accounts for the curious events that followed the surrender, for although the Norfolks were attacked by one SS Battalion, most of their survivors were captured by the SS Company which up to that moment had been fighting the Royal Scots. This other SS Battalion took a number of prisoners, among them Captain C. Long, MC, who was the Battalion Adjutant. The treatment they received was good, and gave little cause for complaint. Had all the Battalion fallen into their hands the events of the Le Paradis massacre would not have happened.
When the Battalion surrendered about one hundred men were collected and paraded on a minor road off the Rue du Paradis. There they were given many evidences of the mounting temper of German troops. Their equipment was taken and they were marched into a paddock of a farm and shot.
The German Battalion Commander had gone forward after the surrender, which took place in the early hours of the afternoon. While the men were waiting on the road two machine-guns of No. 4 Machine-gun Company were brought forward and set up in the paddock. Fritz Knoechlein was No. 3 Company Commander of the Battalion and also the Deputy Battalion Commander. He was directly responsible for the crime and it was on his orders to fire that the killing of the prisoners occurred. After the shooting of the British soldiers Knoechlein had gone around the locality looking for British prisoners or wounded. He found some French civilians and threatened them. These civilians saw a wounded soldier shot with a rifle after the mass shooting.

On May 27th, their ammunition expended, and completely cut off from their Battalion and Brigade Headquarters, 97 officers and men of the 2/Royal Norfolks surrendered to No. 4 Company of the 1st Battalion of the 2nd S.S. Totenkopf (Deathshead) Regiment. They were disarmed, marched into a field, mowed down by machine-guns, finished off by revolver shots and bayonet thrusts and left for dead. By a miracle two of them escaped death, and were hidden and succoured for a short time by the people of Le Paradis. Later they became prisoners of war, and ultimately returned home to set in motion the wheels of justice which, on January 28th 1949, brought to the gallows the German officer who gave the command for this massacre.
A day or two after the atrocity the local people, under orders from the Germans, buried the dead where they lay. In 1942, however, the bodies were exhumed and moved into the part of Le Paradis churchyard which is now the war cemetery. Other casualties were brought from scattered graves in the area.

The Mayor of Bethune reported details of the Le Paradis massacre to the allied authorities, in October 1944. In the report he states that 97 soldiers - temporarily buried at the massacre site until 1942 when they were re-interred at Le Paradis war cemetery. He gives a list of 45 identified bodies - 4 named but uncertain as to veracity and 48 unidentified bodies.
One of those identified bodies was Private 5764130 A.B.Preston, Royal Norfolk Regiment.

If you zoom in, you can just make out Trip, Mom, Lila and Dad - so this was taken by me, probably on a bulky point-and-shoot that was my first dedicated, non-disposable camera. It wasn't any great shakes (and neither was I) but here we are today with nearly 18,000 photos on my Flickr, so I guess it started me along the way. All I can really remember now is the feeling of the little plastic film-rewinder; it was the round kind with a lever/handle that could be flipped up to grasp and turn.

Como bem diz o título, ultimamente tenho andado viciada em produtos da Maybelline. Tudo começou em Julho, quando eu tive que dar uma palestra sobre fotografia e não podia fazer feio na hora do reboco... Fui procurar uma base que combinasse com o meu tom de pele e acabei achando a Dream Liquid Mousse, gostei tanto que resolvi comprar outros produtos da linha e com isso acabei adquirindo a Dream Matte Mousse e o Dream Mousse Blush, afinal, não poderia sair nas fotos com a testa brilhando mais que o vampiro do crepúsculo não é mesmo? =]
Para completar eu precisava de um batom que não saísse durante o dia todo, ainda mais que eu iria falar um monte e comer e beber, já que havia achado a marca tão boa, nada mais justo que escolher um batom da própria. Acabei comprando o Superstray 16h e realmente, o treco gruda absurdo na boca *.* Fiquei impressionada! Nos cílios usei o Colossal de sempre, também da mesma marca... A única coisa que não era da Maybelline foi o Kajal, deste eu não abro mão e – no meu caso – acho o melhor lápis preto do mundo \o/
Depois da palestra eu fiquei de olho em mais coisas da marca, mas fui pegando do Ebay, afinal já não havia a necessidade imediata de uso =]

Leve, fácil de aplicar, dura horrores, cobre bem, usa um dosador que impede o contato das mãos com o restante do produto e evita o desperdício.

Mineral Power, Bronzer, Sunset
Depois que eu comprei que eu fui ver que tinha também o Sunlight e o Sunrise, mas gostei bastante do meu, é só tomar cuidado na hora de passar para não pesar a mão. Também vem com um mini kabuki \o/
Cover Stick, Médio Neutro
Cobre muito bem as olheiras e é bem do meu tom de pele =]
Superstray Lipcolor 16h, 780 Spice
Gruda que é o inferno para tirar depois, mas cumpre o que promete! Vem com o gloss numa ponta e um hidratante especial na outra. Adoro batom “cor de boca”.

This DVD/CD store has plenty of VHSs and cassettes, as well as blank VHS tape, cassette players, VHS rewinders (!) and other accessories, plus a couple of CB radios. No 8-tracks, though. ;-)
Mayor Summey announced that 500 tickets to the Saturday's North Charleston Pops! show are being donated to local veterans so they can enjoy the performance for free. Representatives from the Charleston County Veterans Affairs Office were on hand to accept the donation.
The first half of Saturday's "We Will Never Forget: A Salute to our Veterans" concert features music from the Revolutionary and Civil wars, World War I, the Big Band Era, and a special salute to the Armed Forces. The second half features the Rewinders, a rock band playing music from the time of the Korean and Vietnam wars, including the music of Elvis and the British Invasion. The concert ends with Ray Charles' version of America, the Beautiful and Lee Greenwood's God Bless the USA. Mayor Keith Summey will perform a dramatic reading during the performance.
The North Charleston Pops! made their concert debut on June 26 at the North Charleston Coliseum backing up legendary musical group Earth, Wind and Fire. Earth, Wind and Fire made a stop in the Lowcountry as part of their "Guiding Lights" tour and to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the City of North Charleston. The North Charleston Pops! performed with the band on some of their biggest hits including, "Boogie Wonderland", "Shining Star", "Sing a Song", "September", "Let's Groove" and many more. Members of the North Charleston Pops! have performed in the past with such national touring Broadway shows as WICKED, MARY POPPINS, CHICAGO and PETER PAN during their runs at the North Charleston Performing Arts Center.

Hidden and decaying above an amusement arcade In Batley, West Yorkshire is the former Regent Picture House. Above a suspended ceiling are the remains of the old cinema, built just after the end of the Great War in 1919. Originally it could hold 800+ patrons who would have paid to see the films of the day.
Today, it is derelict; its projectors and spools of film left in the projection room. Although the tiered flooring remains in the circle, many of the seats have long gone. Two rows of original seats are left. The ornate plaster work of the ceiling remains as do wonderful traces of the old cinema.
Plans are in the pipeline to convert the upstairs of the venue, but keeping many of the original features.
(Right now I have no digital camera to take a picture of this. I only have a fax-like scanner, so I drew my project of modified Dirkon.)
This is the 3rd Dirkon I 'build'. The first 2 ones I had a problem: when I walked around with it in my bag, it would get all screwed up. They both were made of black cardboard and had a layer of black tape, but yet it would happened. Also, I had to build a 3rd one to make this modification because I torn out the 2 previous ones when I got unpacient to take the film out of them (in other hand I'm pacient enough to build them, go figure).
This one is ready, but right now it's all black in cardboard and some paint to seal leaks. I call it Dirkon Mod 35 because it's a MODified Dirkon, and the 35 is just to make it sound good. I think just 'Dirkon Mod' sounds bad.
Funcional modifications:
I added plastic pencaps to make the rewinder and winder, both actually funcional.
The rewinder in this one is not just decorative, it actually works. No more dark room needed to rewind the film!
The winder of my previous Dirkon cameras (made of papel and clip) would keep falling off, in this one it doesn't. The plactic cap fits perfectly and everything stays in its right place. I had to test several pencaps until I find the perfect fit.
Also, this Dirkon doesn't need an empty film roll. I cut a pen and it holds the film in place and pulls it when you turn the winder.
The removable back fits perfectly, so I don't have to use a rubber band any more. It's actually so tight I have to apply a little pressure to put it in place and to pull it off. Although, I will keep using a rubber band, just in case. If I can find, I'll add velcro, so I can finally be sure the back is safe and dish the rubber band once for all.
Visual modifications:
No fake parts. No fake viewfinder, no fake buttoms, etc.
I want to cover in a rubberised foam sheet... the problem is they come in very few colors (black, white, red, bright dark blue, lemon green, light blue, light pink, bright orange, bright yellow and light violet). I want it to look discreet, I don't like people staring me whenever I take pictures. I don't want to use black 'cause I realize nowadays people act strange when you walk around downtown with a wierd little black box with bottoms. I like white but is not a good option for me, I'm too clumsy and it will get dirt quickly. Another discreet color option is light pink, but I don't want use it neither 'cause I just hate pink. Except light blue, all other colors are too eye-catching and I want it to look plain... so I picked light blue.
I'm going to use light blue to the body, white to all aditional parts (winder, exposure lever, etc), and black ink to the arrow indicators in the winder/rewinder (which is shown in my drawing in blue pen).
I don't think I'll write the 'model' on it. Or maybe I will, I have to think about it.
I also have to add a piece of a wooden popsicle stick to harden the exposure lever.
I'm accepting any suggestions, of colors or add funcional features, to improve it.
I'm still in doubt if I keep the original image in the back, that part which says 'UNICHEM', so my modified Dirkon keeps a trace of the original Dirkon. Maybe I'll cover it too in light blue foam, to keep the harmony in the camera look overall.
considered as the best japanese Leica, it seems like a terrific camera with equipments that even the Leica didin't have like a lever wind. it seems that no more than 3,000 copies were produced. here's what it takes (it's my new best friend!).
Unfortunatley, this camera has left the building since (the film rewinder stopped working), maybe one day I'll get another one!

Next remove the Screw (see red arrow) of the Rewinder Knob. Turn ccw.
A piece of masking tape (see green arrow) ensures that the back stays open.
This is handy in the case that the Rewinder Axle accidently should fall in
the camera body once its Knob is removed. Opening the closed Back would
be a bit of a problem then ;-)

WANTED: Vintage 35mm movie projectors and theatre equipment. My name is Tom Wilson, I am an avid collector of vintage motion picture projection equipment. I will travel any distance to pick items up and will pay in cash. I am very experienced with removing large and heavy machines and can do so without leaving any mess or damage to the building. If you have any items that you would be interested in selling, feel free to call me at 937-477-9855 or email at tomwilson@cameragraph.com
If you want to be part of a hype today, you need to buy : "Heavily Commercialised with A-lot-of Advertised Brand-Stamped Things that your Hyper Neighbour has and that you still not have, but will have, because it's Annoying that your Neighbour is Hyper then Yourself".
Ok besides this, it's a fake SLR and analog filmcamera.
It has 2 viewers, point-and-shoot and a topviewer.
It has a motorwinder, a automatic fash and a motorized zoom, wich I don't know the exact the focal-lenght, probably around 50mm.
To make a strong and heavy feeling, there is some metal pieces in it, that are coming loose after a while.
A nice Robocop-sound is made wen zooming and focussing(?).
The exposure is automatic and only works when the flash is up.
A digital LCD screen on top with : counter, selftimer, film-rewinder, red-eye reduction and some kind of remote controller.
The lens has a fantastic 50mm, 6.3 - 16 plastic pinhole free focus color made-in japan lens.
I just figured what the zoom does : it's a motorized aperture-mechanism for the exposure that is indicated on a small sticker with suns and clouds, you can use it by pushing 2 big red buttons forward and backwards...
I would call the it the Ultimate-I-Analoge-Camera.
Thanks for Jan Pattyn for the gift.

Actually, this doesn't look like it has any means to project. Maybe it's just a rewinder. Anyone know?
"Little Stupid Camera". That's what I've been calling this little modded friend/foe.
Shoots 4-6 frames in the space of one normal frame, saving film... and quality.
I attached a pistol grip which actually trips the shutter, thanks to the cable release.
How it works in detail:
In order to get more frames onto a roll, the film gate has been decreased in size (by masking) so only a little strip of the film is exposed each time it's shot.
Because only a little bit of the frame is used, the film must be advanced by only a little bit. This is done by using the rewinder—the film must loaded and spooled all the way onto the take-up reel first. So, every time a shot is taken, the film is rewound a bit into the canister. Notice the markings on the winder signifying the amount it should be turned. That's the simple explanation. In truth, since the spool in the canister is getting thicker every time more film is spooled onto it, the amount that the rewinder should be rotated changes. Hence, I mentioned 4-6 shots per normal frame size.
The small frames themselves are tall and thin. That's why the camera is turned sideways. This way you get super wide screen aspect ratios.

This image shows how you can make multiple exposures on the same filmframe. The back should be closed of course :-)
So you want to be artistic and make more then one exposure on the same filmframe. Then, after the first exposure, push the Film wind unlock button (see red arrow). This disengages the toothed transportroller from the winder key action.
So now you can do the double winder key stroke in order to arm the shutter again and make the next exposure.
When you are done with the multiple exposures simply press the unlock button (see green arrow) and the toothed transportroller engages again.
One thing to watch for during all these multiple exposures is that you don't touch the rewinder knob (not visible in this image) because that could move the filmframe.

We reorganized our "gadget drawers", managing to get 4 drawers of stuff compressed into 2 drawers.
The trackball on the left is my preferred style of trackball -- the Crystal Trackball is basically a transparent version of this. Too bad in the name of "progress", computer manufacturers have dropped serial ports, as if nobody has any devices that use them. I also lost the functionality to receive infrared transmissions, as my IRMan infrared receiver, supported by remote control program Girder, is serial only. Technological Progress: Breaking anything and everything you will ever build, making enjoying computers a constant and neverending struggle. It wasn't supposed to be this way.
The mousepad is from when I worked at MCI Internet Engineering. I probably should have stayed there, but my consulting company pulled some shit I couldn't agree too -- work on Christmas Eve, or trade your vacation time for the flex time of not working on Christmas. In other words, you couldonly take the 8 hours of Christmas Eve off if you sacrificed 8 hours of vacation time AND worked 8 hours extra that pay period. Bullshit. They ceased to exist way sooner than MCI did.
Three different colors of cards here... Usually they are dark geren. That light green card is an odd color. Red cards are coming out more and more, and definitely my favorite.
And yes, that's a VHS tape rewinder we got at a yardsale, to save wear and tear on our VCRs. But we phased our VCRs out, for the most part, and never really got any use out of it.
The micro-cassette recorder is the good kind with a "REM" remote jack... I have something that hooks to my phone that records phone calls automatically if you have a "REM" jack. But since I don't, I have to hit record myself to record a phone call.
The Creative Webcam was actually our first digital cam, and was used to take our low quality (640x480 with even lower apparent pixel density and very very very very pooor ISO) honeymoon pictures.
And look at that old hub -- 10base2! Of course with 10base2, you kind of didn't NEED a hub at all times (I believe me and Carolyn and Ryan Somma's 3-computer network, only used for playing Quake, was 10base2 with no hub), so I wonder how I ended up with this.

This is my old Agfa Optima 1035 Sensor, a 1960's era point-and-shoot with a simple sensor that tells you if you're doing it right...or it tries to, anyways. I found it at a thrift store--a case of them not knowing what it is and tossing it in with everything else. This enabled me to get it for $4. The rewinder is broken, so I have to lock myself in the dark bathroom and rewind rolls by hand. Am thinking about trying to use a drill to do it way faster next time.
It has since been cleaned up.

anyway thanks dubdew for the buy two get one free film!
This is a beat up brown skinned Pentax K1000 that I bought for $10. Camera has some issues, the worst of which was that it had been dropped with a UV filter on. The UV filter was very badly nicked, bent and stuck to the lens. I was able to remove it using a oil filter wrench, the kind with the rubber strap and plastic handle, works like a charm. The light seal on the mirror was good, the battery compartment was clean, there was no mold or scratches on the ƒ-2/50mm prime lens and shutter fires at all speeds. The other big problem was that the rewinder knob was missing and without it, you can't open the film compartment, but a plastic coated heavy paper clip with the end bent solved that problem, so all I need is a rewinder and it should be good to shoot with. The missing skin on the one side of the camera is cosmetic, but I can always reskin the camera with a kit.
After visiting the main floor, we were allowed up to the projectionists' booth and we were shocked to see they had left nearly all the original equipment in the room, including this tabletop reel rewinder. What a great find!
This is the film canister side. Remove the two screws and use pliers to grab hold of the rewinder. This little piece has to stay still in the next step...

Above a suspended ceiling are the remains of the old cinema, built just after the end of the Great War in 1919. Originally it could hold 800+ patrons who would have paid to see the films of the day.
Today, it is derelict; its projectors and spools of film left in the projection room. Although the tiered flooring remains in the circle, many of the seats have long gone. Two rows of original seats are left. The ornate plaster work of the ceiling remains as do wonderful traces of the old cinema.
Plans are in the pipeline to convert the upstairs of the venue, but keeping many of the original features.

Rewinder Knob Removal 2
Put a screwdriver in the fork of the shaft, and turn the Rewinder Knob counter-clockwise (CCW for future reference).
To make the camera easier to handle during the rest of the tear-down, put the back on.
Just insert a screwdriver blade in the fork on the rewinding shaft inside the cannister bay, and turn the knob counter-clockwise.
