Leather Panzer Wrap question ...

[NickG]

In this clip; various leather suits worn here by the KM late war...Midget subs, attack craft etc...
Some with zippered sleeved (4:30)..so not all leather gear was redirected towards the panzer truppen!

I just got this leather set reserved for me on the Guild!
This gem was hidden away in the NSKK section!!!

Asking $539, very reasonable!

My leather wrapper arrived from the Guild! I'm very pleased. Dated 1944!

Btw for those interested here's one currently being offered on Ebay, along with an interesting period photo...wearing these with black Pz side caps!
(quality not that good...these could also be 2 KM guys dressed in leather and dark blue side caps + 2 KM coastal troops in field gray))

Yep that's no doubt the Pz component of the HJ Div training in Belgium, wearing KM style leathers! (longer jacket with stand up collar)
Not wrappers but still a very cool picture! Thanks for sharing

I have never seen any footage of the mini-subs before. That is one wild concept (perhaps very sound however) but the footage of those guys is crazy. They make Kamikaze pilots look like wimps.

Other fotos of same tanks are described in a book:

Les Panzer IV de la 6´compagnie progessent entre Oostende (á 10km sur la photo ci-contre au milieu) et Torhout (á 14km sur la photo ci-contre au milieu). Nous sommes donc a l´ouest de Bruges, nous croisons la route 63 (actuelle N33 reliant Oostende a Torhout)
