Early Christmas Bundeswehr Style

[RedCatcher1986]

Well USPS just visited my doorstep and its like Christmas in June down here. Special thanks to member, good friend and excellent businessman SirHarry1 for the splendid acqiring and sale procedure for a treasure trove of Bundeswehr militaria. I thought Id share some shots with my fellow collectors and friends here. Also arrived were some memorabilia from the Nationale Volksarmee for the DDR fans, and of course as I refer to them "Forefathers of the Bundeswehr" but for the fans of the Imperial & Third Reich time frames I received portraits of the Red Baron Manfred von Richtofen and the Desert Fox Erwin Rommel. Even though they're of course not original prints the quality is stunning enough. Im going to figure out now a display for my future set up tying those individuals regarding their influence on the modern Luftwaffe & Heer branches respectively.

Nice additions to your collection. A good looking early visor.

RedCatcher1986 - Sweet "insta-collection"!

I'd also like to pester you with some close-up requests; a good look at the insignia on the panzer tunic and the cuff title on the greni tunic please.

High quality items - great taste!

All the best - TJ

Thank you Mr. Cullinane,

It's like Christmas time in the summer heat of the southern United States. As requested here are some close ups of the tunics. Unfortunately there is no cuff title on the Panzergrenadier tunic, it is the Panzer tunic sleeve against the Greni tunic but here you are.
