Interesting there Herr Major,

Maybe you can share with us a larger and clearer photo of the straps next to each other? Do you intend on making more reproductions?

Thanks,

Christian

Not entirely sure for army topical uniforms that were part of the DAK. However collar braid was more common on Heer uniforms than LW and KM ones.

Book received. Excellent condition and fast dispatch. very happy. Thanks

Yes those are the ones

Looks good. if you want you can also opt for an m44 pattern trousers and feldbluse as well. LW breadbag can be of any colour at this point, not necessarily blue. A greatcoat, without collar tabs, can also complete the impression, depending on the weather. as for trade badges? Sound locater could be ...

Which ones? the early or late?

Hey pete. Glad you found what you were looking for. Where can we get KM reproductions nowadays?

Hi Sjoerd, I've been eyeing some KA pieces recently and I have seen both examples. I come to understand that this is similar to the army. The backed ones are pre-early war, where as litzen sewn to the collar itself, are mid-late war. I haven't seen any original litzen alone. If I come across somethi...
