I came across the following photograph.
I know the Luftwaffe cloth eagle was often worn, sewn to the camouflage jump smock (right breast), often/usually with a khaki edging.
But, looking closely at the attached photo - it looks like some of the FJ paratroopers in the photograph are also wearing their fallschirmjaeger qualification jump badge attached to the camouflage smock (left side, lower).
(FJ in center and second from right)
Was this normal, or done for the photograph?
Thoughts?
