    Photo of SS Uscha in FJ smock!

    I also placed this photo in the Photo and Paper Forum but reckoned it would have some impact here as well.

    The subject is a Dutch W-SS member who's photo is published in a nice little book covering SD and SIPO in the Netherlands. Apparently this SS men started his career in the W-SS in '41 and was transferred to the SD in the NL after getting wounded. He subsequently also took part in the fighting around Arnhem in '44.

    A few aspects about this photo are worth mentioning: the FJ knochensack he is wearing with attached SS-shoulder straps and the TK- collar tab, this since he was of course no member or part of Div.Totenkopf or TK Rgt. Another Photo in the same book shows him as a EM and wearing the regular SS collar tab with runes but with a TK tab on his left collar as well!!

    ...who would not pass on a tunic when offered like that..

      This photo appears to have been published in a book. It is fair game....

      Very cool photo! It appears he is wearing a M40 splinter step in smock worn over his SS uniform. SS shoulder straps do indeed appear to have been added to the smock.
