Hi Peter, The branch is ordnance I believe. I ask because I was offered a tunic with the exact same branch/rank

Hi Peter, Where did you get the Zaszlos tunic? John

First off, great uniforms, as always. I think the loops are from some form of wings or specialization badge. I've seen medal ones that have the correct prongs, like the following boarder guard's badge http://www.emedals.ca/catalog.asp?item=H139. It could be, though is highly unlikely, that the man may have been attached to a para unit. I saw a photo once of a paratrooper with an air force tunic. I'll post the photos if I can find it. John

Hi CD. Long time no talk. How have you been? I'm going to be getting a copy soon as well. Many of the uniforms are from the collection of Mr. P?ter v. Laborc, who has one of the most extensive collections of WWII Hungarian uniforms in the world. The books site is www.huniform.com John

They wold be the same, but with black collar tabs., and in the case of the greatcoat black piping. This is a medical greatcoat minus the collar tabs http://hungarianmilitaria.hu/modules/egyen...w.php?ruh_id=54 and this is a medical 3rd Lt/warrent officer's tunic and dress cap http://kepfeltoltes.pirateclub.hu/pics/orv...los_zubbony.jpg Best regards, John

Greatcoat back... I'll post the photos of my tanker's jacket, sheepskin lined greatcoat, and my reproduction summer uniform either sunday or monday.

Greatcoat front. I was suprised to find that next to the third button from the bottom there is a fitting for a combat leadership badge.

All the next photos are of an infantry captian's set I recently bought, although I think the cap and greatcoat have 1st Lt insignia on them. Here is the tunic...

Close up on the collar and medals...

Here are some uniforms from my collection. Sorry that the photos arnt that great. The first is my quartermaster captian's field tunic. I placed a junk medal i got at a flea market where the fire cross should be on both tunics.

Thanks CD. I'm going to be getting a geat infantry captians set in a few weeks. you mind if i post it on your tunic section?

Hi all, I was wondering if any of you know what branch this Hungarian soldier belongs to. http://www.netlabor.hu/roncskutatas/module...o.php?lid=12813 It looks like it's red on white. Also, what are the two medals he has on the right brest bocket and above it? Best regards, John

Hi All. I found this link about the Arrow Cross' persicution of the jews. It has some great photos of Arrow Cross men in uniform, and has a Waffen SS soldier with the death squad pin on his right breast pocket. Note there are some graphic photos. http://www.osa.ceu.hu/galeria/sites/siege/section2.html John

Hello Gentlemen, This is my first post on this forum, and I am very happy to be part of such a distinguished group as this. I bought this set over the summer for a very good deal. I am only 17, so I was amazed to have to opportunity to own such a rare piece. Enjoy.
