The East German Border Guard Uniforms from 1962

[Tobias]

Hello Gentlemen,

today I present to you the East German service tunic from 1962-1965/68 in olive stone grey.

In 1962 the East German Border Troops replaced their khaki uniforms with the stone grey version you see here. The camouflage smock was from 1958.

Bye,

 

Tobias

Here is a photo taken summer 1963 of the Berlin Wall in the French Sector.  East German Border Guards wearing uniforms as described are seen on the other side of the Wall on a raised observation platform.
