Looks like you have a nice War room, have you manage to pick up any head gear for your'e KM coastal mannequin?

Thanks! I will post some more in the collection thread of me. I'll put a link then here ;-).

I'm searching for a very nice KM camo with a certain typical coastal camo (many dots or stripes) not like a brushed normandie camo or something else...

Nice KA mannequin , you just have to change shoulder boards to em + Y straps to the light version.

Salut ,

Very nice

you just have to change ... Y straps to the light version

I disagree .
Of course light Y-straps are far more prevalent in the KM but the Navy was also issued with "heavy/classic/standart" Y-straps of the type SMLE used. If indeed those are KM marked, IMO they would be far more desirable than the ones you suggest.

Any period picture or heavy straps KM marked to show us ?

Re-Dimitri,

I remember a positive KM/Kusten photo in one of Chazette 's book . Sometime it is tricky to be sure if "bunker-men" are KM or Heer personel.
However there has been some "heavy Y-Straps" with KM code posted here. I'll try to find them.
