Could this be a Italian made Wehrmacht breast eagle? It looks odd....
These are Italians in Italian gear with added breast eagles "volunteering for Heer service" it states!
Note MP40! Italian kit for the most part! (shirts, leather bandoleer, Bustinas... etc)Last edited by NickG; 01-12-2009, 05:55 PM.Comment
