    Thanks....! this project is for the long run as some items will be hard to find....(Italian camo pants) but so far I´m thinking of getting a full boy but all white with egg head...don't want anything to distract from the items that will make the display.

    I will be hunting the gear and maybe a stripped tunic to go with it.....but still the idea of hiding the tunic under the smock puts me off..maybe a pull down shirt, don't know....

                            Its interesting how crude this 1950´s Spanish iron crosses, when compared to the war time EK´s, and this crudeness in manufacture is a trait of this early models, later models had better quality. We must remember that Blue Division Veterans, unlike German veterans, could ware their war time medals without any restrictions in post war Spain and that is why jewelers in Spain and certain shops started producing such medals as replacements for the vets. id original was given away or damaged.......

                                Thanks for answering my questions. It must be cool to know what division something belonged to and the location. For the mannequin idea, I would go for something with as little detail to the body as possible so you can look at the items more rather than the face, hands, etc....
