Guest Rick Research Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 Yup. They are wearing Reichsheer hand-me-downs. Note that a number of them don't have collar Litzen, and one way in back has a concealed button front on his tunic. Even the guys in front with the new M1936 tunics are wearing old headgear and the 1934/35 type small cap eagles. Those are REALLY old issue uniform stocks!

panzerpioniere Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Here is a nice early 1925 dated Pionier cap I just got, has the later insignia on it, obviously the guy wanted to wear it, this is a direct vet purchase from a friend, so it has not been messed with.Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
