Re: Hi from Spain.
divizion azul is an interesting impression, looks very good. What are the differences with normal Heer except for the decal and the patch on your arm?
Re: Hi from Spain.
Thanks to all for your kind messages ! I hope to post new photos soon.
Appart from the shield and decal all the equipement is WH no great differences except that some blue division soldiers keep on using some spanish army items as belts,medals,spanish army ranks, or blue shirt (Falangista ) with the uniform..thinny moustaches where also quite popular.
The uniforms of departure and comeback from/to Spain are Spanish Ones with red beret (carlista ) and blue shirt (falangista ) but they never fought with them,they were just to make the travel to and from the East Front.
Also there´s no soldbuch for the "divisionarios", just the Personalausweis der Spanischen Dvision nº 250.

Re: Hi from Spain.
New photos, this time in the departure uniform, the dress of the Spanish volunteers from their Formation in Spain until they reached their training camp in Germany was a mixture of Spanish Army uniform and the apparel of the National Movement (Red beret and blue shirt ).Enjoy

Re: Hi from Spain.
Welcome to the forum from Nuevo Mexico! lol
Re: Hi from Spain.
Welcome! Great impressions! It's nice to see a Blue Division impression. I'm actually planning to do an impression myself!
I was wondering, do you know where one could get hold of equpiment, trousers and shirts used during the Civil War(repro, if that's availabe).
I'm actually putting together a Spanish Foreign-legion impression and maybe another Nationalist impression as well, but I have no idea where I should look for the stuff.
I've found a vendor that produces repro Republican stuff, but that's about it.
If you know any info about uniform vendors and such, PM me!
Cheers,
BERG

Please Berg if you have some photos of the Spanish Foreign-legion impression dont hesitate to post them, lovely idea ! !!
Google "todocoleccion.net" its an Spanish place where sometimes you cand find usefull stuff, just type on the search gap "Legion" most will be modern items..but some of them can be used.
