Luftwaffe Water container
norwest78 replied to Snoopy's topic in Germany: Third Reich: Uniforms, Headwear, Insignia & Equipment
I've seen 5l, 10l, 18l (backpack), and 20l (jerry can) sizes. I'm told that there's also a 15l size. I personally have only the 5 and 10l sizes, two of each. I purchased an 18l type about a year ago, but it never arrived. -
That's a nice little tidbit, Hardy. Thank you!

The stitching of the piping is virtually invisible, as it is underneath the center of the piping. Here you can see a stitch just barely peeking out. --Kevin

Not bad for a weekend's work! What's the smaller pouch in the first picture? --Kevin -

Wow, nice catch there! -
Hi Joe, There is no acceptance stamp on mine, and I don't know of any association with Patrick Caldwell. Great set you have there!
-
Very observant of you, Eric. Thank you!

What do you guys think of these? Proper tabs? --Kevin

Very nice of you to post those, Andreas. Now, unfortunately, I'm going to have to pester you for yours.

And here it is, the lucky find!

For a couple of years, I've had a grouping of photos that follow a LW soldier through various stages in his career. Then the other day on ebay, I spotted another photo of him. What's more, the photo showed him at a later stage, when he'd received his EK1 and NCO promotion. Quite a coincidence, and I'm happy to say that I was able to get the photo at auction. It is the last one posted here. Regards, Kevin

Nice assortment, Fran?ois! What's in that little pouch that's under the flap of the bag in the upper left?

Besides the hardware, that's a very interesting-looking bird, Jos. The tail shows exaggerated "scalloping" on the end, whereas most tails are cut very "straight". --Kevin

Here's a later version, with coarser pebbling. --Kevin

LOL. That it is, Bill! Thank you again! --Kevin
