Brad Cancian Posted January 21, 2018 Posted January 21, 2018 Hi all - a comment over in the Luftwaffe Ingenieurkorps thread (see here) led me to raise a topic on Heer Pioneer / Engineer uniform items. To kick this one off, here are a number of uniform items that I own (or used to own) before I turned my focus to Luftwaffe Engineers: Feel free to post your own Heer Pioneer / Engineer items! Cheers, Brad C
Gary B Posted January 21, 2018 Posted January 21, 2018 Wow, Brad! I did not realize you had so many Heer Pioneer uniforms/visors! Gary B
Bob Lyons Posted January 25, 2018 Posted January 25, 2018 Very impressive array of wonderful items.... How about one from the Luftwaffe....
Brad Cancian Posted January 25, 2018 Author Posted January 25, 2018 A beauty of a cap there Bob - used to have one myself - Cheers BC
Bob Lyons Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 A lovely cap too Brad, hard to find with this piping. Here is a bit of info on the soldier that once owned my example.... -Bob
ostprussenmann_new Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 (edited) Brad, thanks for starting this thread. My first one is from the same battalion as my late great uncle. M36 Oberfeldwebel Pionier BN Nr 22, 22d Luftlande Division. The only not original to the tunic is the breast eagle which I believe was added postwar. It was sewn through the liner and is definitely a midwar Eagle, however being the only ever tunic I have seen from this particular battalion I bought it anyways. These pics are all coming off my phone. I will post some more soon. Edited February 19, 2018 by ostprussenmann_new
ostprussenmann_new Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 Not Heer, but here is one of my most prized tunics... WSS Gebirgs-Pionier Nord Division in the rank of Scharfuhrer.
ostprussenmann_new Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 Here is another one named grouping to Pionier Hauptmann d.R with DKiG. Also has a NSDAP Golden Party Badge.
Brad Cancian Posted August 20, 2018 Author Posted August 20, 2018 Though I mostly focus on Luftwaffe engineers these days, I haven't been able to resist a couple of visor purchases of late.... Keep the pioneer stuff coming! Cheers, BC
