Hauptmann Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 Love what we're seeing so far Tom. Great collection! I'm sure alot of folks were like me... used to see this stuff for cheap in surplus stores all over and never gave it much thought. Now I wish I had. They're great to display the 57 awards on not to mention any Bundeswehr badges and such that come down the road. Looking forward to more. :jumping: Thanks so much for sharing! Plus it's great getting some activity going in this section again! Dan :cheers:
speedytop Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 Hi Tom, nice pieces, but please, an officer never wore a "Schützemschnur" (Post3). Uwe
Hauptmann Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 Uwe is correct... sorry... I didn't catch that one first time I looked. Simple enough a fix on that one. Dan :cheers:
TacHel Posted February 1, 2012 Posted February 1, 2012 Very nice! Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to more pics! :cheers:

Guest talltom Posted February 1, 2012 Posted February 1, 2012 a quick shot of part of the collection on display:
Paul R Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 I am blown away! That is an amazing collection. I had never even heard of BW Panzer berets, and you have two of them! That medical officer tunic is absolutely gorgeous! I love how the blue color surrounds the sleeve patch. I have never seen the waffenfarbe displayed in this manner. Was this a short lived practice?
GRA Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 I love how the blue color surrounds the sleeve patch. I have never seen the waffenfarbe displayed in this manner. Was this a short lived practice? Paul, to my knowledge they still use the same patches, and they also have a blue beret with a snake badge. As far as I know, this is a doctor-dentist-nurse distinction, combat medics wear the same uniforms as the unit they serve in. /Jonas
