Here is the progress of my early war walking out impression from an event this weekend. Please forgive the lack of M36 or earlier tunics.

Hey I know those two guys.

Thanks Marco! I'll get to sewing! Do you have any recommendations on the type of material? I have some original breadbag material.. but don't know if that would work.

Beautiful tunic Mr. Pipes, beautiful tunic!

I bought three of the IMA Zelts. Their pattern is nice compared to Sturms. A little brighter than my original 39 dated zelt, but then again I havent seen an unissued one in my hand. Nice three hole buttons, they all button together. But remember, they are only $69 a piece. You should not be expectin...

Thanks everyone!

Hey all! After seeing everyone in Europe and some folks on the East coast of the U.S. step it up with authenticity, we formed a new generic German Heer unit from the old 984th group in Texas. We are relatively new as a group (but have been reenacting for a few years now) and we are striving to be th...
