Look forward to seeing you put together the Pz Gren Officer, all it will take is some LTM (Luck, Time & Money)

Timo,

killer selection there! Wish I had never sold my green afrika cuff title :/ It was tan on the front from fading but nice and green on the back. Those are rumored to have been issued to Paras but I have never seen anything to substantiate that claim. Matt

Hi Timo

Yes your collection of c't's is outstanding Like the green Afrika too, and agree Matt not just for FJ's. Also the brown KM Afrika version and of course the two black AKCT's

Heia Safari !

Fantastic thread! So many incredible examples.

From the SOS........A worn '40 dated Halfar.

Stunning cap Larry love the colour and ware also really like the framed cut insignia behind it.

How was the SOS for tropical caps,tunics/gear? ?

Greg

[Mark Gibson]

A good looking example Larry. Some collectors don't like sidecaps but I love them, especially the early North Africa panzer examples.

Hi Greg and Mark!

Thanks for the kind words. Much appreciated!

Greg, while attending the SOS I was mainly looking for tropical headgear which was minimal. I did see a few tunics and fieldgear, but I wasn't focusing on those items during the show meaning I probably missed some things.

Mark, I've never been a big fan of the overseas caps, but this one was too hard, and rare, to pass up. It still has sand tucked away in the folds.

The past few months have been very kind to me. I've had my eye on the attached for several years, and it finally came my way. I feel very fortunate to own such a fine piece of history.
