The disk above from 27th Luftwaffe J******228;ger Regiment in 14th Luftwaffe feld division comes from a soldier in 27th Luftwaffe J******228;ger Kompanie.
The 14th Luftwaffe feld division was as known stationed in Norway, the first time stationed at some of the large KM batteries. Later most units was in northern Norway, and some was to be included in the heer.
For what its worth, these men was issued among other things for winter use with 1 SS-Windjacke, 1 Wolljacke, 1 Schneehemd, pref. gebirgs or FS-Springerschuhe.

It's my understanding the Luftwaffe had two different green field uniforms; the LW Green HBT uniform and the LW Ground Forces Summer combat uniform. Was the LW Ground Forces Summer combat uniform suppose to be for the LW Field Divisions? Why they need for two different light weight green field uniforms?

Found this Thread today, for me as a Collector of FD Items it is very interesting !

I collect LW FD because my Grandfather served at LW FD 7 as a Stug-Commander in 1942/43. More about him you`ll find here http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...d.php?t=258751

I made a few Quick Shots of some of my FD Stuff



Dog Tags- LNA was Part of Field Division 9 ( http://www.ww2.dk/ground/ln/lnah9.html )
