I do have some Soldbücher with extra clothing inserts for special clothing, also I have the entry on page 8 simply as "Winteranzug".

Can not show any scans at the moment as I am going to the kids pantomime in a few minutes.........

Will try when I get back.

Hi,

Just noticed this thread and was wondering if I could see the scans?

All the best,

Well, till Ian comes with his marvelous things I will start with two of these
entries. The pictures on the left is from a driver who received special boots,
and protection for the breast wrists and knees (but no coat) in Nov. 42 and
had to give back everything in May 43.

The second is a gunner in a Sturm-Flak unit who received a much better
equipment one year later (special jacket, trousers, gloves, a cap, boots and
protection for the knees). Received it in Dec. 43 and had to give it back in
April 44.

Hope this is what you are looking for!

Hello,

Some interesting entries. They enabled me to cross-out a few of the items that were noted in the Soldbuch regarding winter uniforms and equipment. Thanks for sharing. If you ever have the time, could I then please recieve a high-resolution scan, so I can more easily make out the writing?


Kind regards,
Vincent S.
