Re: AK Officers belt

Plenty of repro SS officer belts, fewer Luft, even a few Party and labor organizations...but, as John said, the few Heer repros I've found were advertised as originals.

I'll keep looking - thanks!

AK Officers belt

Hello Gents -

I wanted to get some input - I'd like to get a Heer tropical officers belt and buckle - I have a source for the belt, but can't locate a repro officers buckle - any recommendations for a good repro and supplier?

thanks!

I wish we could get reviews like this for all equipment and sellers. Sorry the product wasn't tops, but it sounds like you've made an effort to help the seller improve.

Cheers -

Re: Luftwaffe Gebirgs?

I think some Fallschirmjager were mountain trained -- for Norway, but not sure about any other operations, perhaps Afrika?

Re: Wilderness/Mountain Medicine

Hello Ron! For my money, the best bermutze is from Gd43 - whether it is feldgrau wool or DAK material, they will custom make a cap that you will want to wear everyday! http://www.gd43.com/ I've got several of their gbj caps - my favorite is a tropical canvas style bergmutze - fantastic! enjoy Mike
