    Fallschirmjager Gear layout help

    Hi guys I got this image from nva-fallschirmjaeger.de. Hope I won't get in trouble for posting it, but I need some help. There are a couple items I do not recognize. I have most all the gear for the layout, just want to get the last stuff to finish it off. I have numbered the items from 1 to 7 for the those pieces of gear I don't know what they are.

    Thanks in advance for the help.

    Difficult to say ....
    1. looks like a T shirt or possibly a towel...
    2. one thing that is missing is the "jogging" suit. An earlier version of it was grey in two piece, so this might be it...
    3. it looks like the cape that was folded and kept in the gasmask bag
    4. keine Ahnung looks like a magazine or flare pouch. Viktor will probably know...
    5. keine Ahnung...
    6. keine Ahnung...
    7. keine Ahnung...
    who put together this gear for the photograph? I am dubious about its being a period one firstly because it looks very much like the display a re-enactor, living history member puts together for a show. Secondly most of the stuff is for an EM but the top shirt is for an officer or career soldier as the buttons are plastic... unless of course it was taken before 1974...
    very difficult

      #3 is the "rain foil" from the gas mask bag - shiny green "plastic" sheet to give quick cover from falling droplets while you mask up.

      #6 is the "head over" isn't it?

        Good idea but for that matter it could easily be #7... One of those two is probably the "OMA"...

          I can only assume the picture is original, of course you never know. Looks to me like it was taken in a barracks, just by the look of the floor.

          Saying that is there an official uniform and gear layout format anywhere, maybe in the grundwissen (sp)? I don't have my copies readily available to look through.

            Bad looking floors are not "confined to barracks"
            You should have seen that of my kitchen before I bought this house and I got things in hand...
            Seriously though, there is something about this display that makes me wonder... I have seen SOOO many living history displays that looked really identical in layout. I just cannot see the point of folding tunics and overcoats that many times, thereby creasing them... There also oddities about it: we have probably the NBC cape but not the gasmask... and where is the helmet? It just cannot be an exhaustive display of all items issued to Falli...

              Members,

              Try looking in the following;

              The para handbook - list + pirctures
              Von Himmel - list + pictures
              Uniformen - they have a list of the kit

                Genossen,

                4. Is the Shoe Finery Things and Housewif Complexes....




                These complexes are of a later Pattern, but give you the Idea of the Norm to be followed.



                The Work Gloves are an Earlier Pattern of Winter trigger Mittens


                This layout shows it is a very old Scale of Norms...

                  ....... That is not a nice way!!!! You must registered on the NVA-FJ-HP in order to get this picture. Why don't you ask him (the originator of the Foto) yourself, what kinds of equipment that is?
