For some time I have observed that there existed some more or less "odd" Wehrmacht Admin General uniforms. As a headgear collector, I especially find these ultra rare visors for "Non-Combatant General ranks" very desirable (if you should be intersted, here is an old thread on these: http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...hlight=general )
Also, I encountered Marine Artillery General's uniforms that look stunning with their blue, rather than red insignia. I remember comming across some original (!!!) Panzer General collar tabs in pink and reading about a regulation towards the end of the war that introduced insignia in branch colors. I got curious and tried to learn more about these...
A couple of days ago, I found this tunic online: http://www.militarycollectiblesinc.c...p?file=un00205
I do not know enough about uniforms to say if this one is good --- what I see, however, is an old style piped tunic (which I understand ist absolutely OK for General ranks) that had the TSD piping and insignia attached (definitely not before 1944 though because the branch color didn't exist prior to that date). While the branch color looks different than the TSD pipings I have seen before, I would very much appreciate some input on how often such General's uniforms are encountered. Any insignia or tunics (possibly even pants) in other branch colors would also be a great contribution!
