    What tropical/summer tunics are they wearing?

    I've been doing a bit of research into the type of uniforms worn in Greece and found this puzzling photo.

    What tunics are these and are they cuff titles the Oberfeldwebel in the centre is wearing or something else?

    They look like hbt jackets which is a lightweight jacket

    The cufftitles on the oberfeldwebel are actually der speiss markings

    Brilliant picture

          Tunics in the middle look like captured ones - they took them over after battle of crete. So either british or greek ones.

              Simular tunic, note the typical big pockets:

                No not really. The soldats in Ben's photo have four button tunic's, not five and without the collar hook.

                    They look to be the same as the shortened British ones in this thread.

                        Maybe they are pre-war Austrian summer tunics??? Here's one that I have in my collection....it's an oatmeal color fabric:
