John,
Thanks for the link. However, is Oberst Leibing a FJ officer or in a Feld Division? It just seems very difficult to find photos of FD troops wearing the Sumpftarn FD jacket.
Is there any evidence of when Sumpftarn FD jackets were issued? Again, referring to the thought that if it was post Nov 43 then the Heer handled logistics & issue of uniforms & equipment.
The search continues!

Great photo David! Looks like Italy. Especially like the that weapon (which defines just who the soldiers are!) and the camo on the vehicle!

Thas a great picture. Don't see the FG42 very often.

Notice the flapped pockets with PRYM snaps on the trousers of the infantryman in the Windmill photo.

Hüsken is selling this green piped Schirmmütze. He claimed it was worn by LW-Feldivisionen.

Not with a first pattern eagle, this is probably Air Traffic Control.....

It doesn't even look like a Luftwaffe cap, the cap band and visor are all wrong.

Yeah, no black mohair band and an army style visor ??.....

I agree.

In general I don´t think that in those late war years green piped hats for the LW Divisdions were introduced.
