ドイツ軍さん

So far, that’s 303 World War II officer and soldier looks. At three seconds per look, it adds up to 15 minutes and 9 seconds. I just wanted to share this as a personal hobby and passion. Back in 2013, when I was studying in Austria, I visited the Museum of Military History in Vienna and saw all kinds of uniforms from the Third Reich and the Allies. Back then, I didn't have a dime to my name—I couldn't afford any of it—and I knew nothing about the history, uniforms, or military gear. I was only 22 in 2013. Thirteen years later, I’m 35. Thirteen years, from 0 to 303. It’s been a very long journey. It’s a hobby I’ve poured all my heart and energy into, and in a way, a dream to escape reality. When I was in school, I used to daydream about living a thousand different lives and having endless possibilities. In the end, I turned out quite ordinary and never made a big name for myself. Still, I have no debt, I live a fairly relaxed life, and I have my own inner spiritual world. Even though those grand ambitions from my youth never came true, at least this wish—to bring to life the things I saw in a museum I only visited once—has been fulfilled. Thirteen years. As the Chinese saying goes, dripping water wears through stone.
