RAD converted Wehrmacht drill tunic pics

[GaryC]

Hi,
Am looking for any pics of RAD men who were taken into the Heere that had altered thier drill tunics to Heere. I have one in grey that has the W.H. breast eagle and rank cheveron. From my reading there were a bunch of RAD taken in and were Pioneers but took a while to get thier WH uniforms so they altered thiers RAD ones. Would like for my display.
Thanks

Drill tunic

I believe both the WH and RAD were white to begin with. The RAD had six buttons and pocket flaps while the WH had five buttons and no flaps. Later WH were in Grey from what I found out. I think RAD were later in grey too.

I would like to post pics but I'm only a member.
