Photo study of troops convalescing

[NickG]

Interesting photo study of troops convalescing (found on an Indian forum!)
Good uniform study!
Includes Freies Indien troops...To my knowledge those troops never saw action
so convalescing from accidents?

The NSKK man sitting with the Legion shield on his sleeve appears to be Walloon REX ! or?

[NickG]

Besides "Freies Indien" also NSKK and W-SS with Heer+DRK nurses!
Here a soldier in full (first pattern) tropical uniform as was the norm!!

Interesting (hospital?) jackets! Do not appear to be standard fatigue drillich uniforms...
With metal dish buttons...

[NickG]

Last one...Flemish Legion also in the mix!
Interesting group of nationalities shown here!

Looking close, all pants and jackets on left in pic 3 have thin stripes, likely light blue but could be any color. IMO hospital issue PJ's.

Great photos!

They are wearing the typical blue striped white/oatmeal colored two piece suits used for WH hospitals. There are slight variations and also a gown in the fabric. These were used also in non-military hospitals. Image shown in post 8 in the link below shows an example of e typical set. They are faded but as noted the stripes are there.
