    sonderverband 288 waffenfarbe colour?

    does anyone know what would be a suitable waffenfarbe colour for an officer "hauptmann" in the Sonderverband 288 in the DAK. This wouod be for a reenactors uniform.

      You have options, you could go GJ as there was a Company sized element if im not mistaken with them, 3 STUGs, some light Inf/Jager/PzGrn color would work.. Matt

        Welcome to the forum.

        Depends on which Company, for example. Recon (copper) 2nd Co Jagers (green), 3rd Co Schutzen (green), 4th Co MG's (green), 5th Co Pz Jg (pink), 6th Co Flak (white) 7th Co Pioneer (black) or 8th Co signals (yellow). There was also the platoon of three STGIIId as Matt mentions.

          I love the stand-by Manion's description in Nick's link - "Rare Investment Opportunity!"

              Feldpost #

              Is there a specific Feldpost # to the 4th Kompanie MG?

                  Soldbuch

                  You can always count on Johnny! It must be something about the Bordeaux-Rot haze he lives in. This is part of a fragment Soldbuch that I have. It doesn't have the letter for the company in the Feldpost #; but, I believe that he might have served with Sonderverband 288.

                    He had previously served with a MG Kompanie of Infanterie Rgt. 278. Here are his shoulder straps.
