Coveralls for one man torpedo

[Ludwig]

I must say, that I have NEVER seen Einmanntorpedo-Piloten with leather overalls or two piece leather uniforms!

[Leroy]

Ludwig - Have you ever seen Einmanntorpedo-Piloten wearing these coveralls
over their normal gear?

I was talking in general about the cloting of the german midget submarine sailors, not specific the one person versions such as the BIBER, sorry for the confusion!

like this ones, used by SEEHUND sailors in 1945

I´ll have to check my archive, but I know that they wore some kind of overall. If exactly this style I cannot answer right now, without checking. I´ll be back!

any thoughts on this piece?

in contrary to the others shown here, this one has a collar and breastpockets.

Could be any working overall, IMO. The K-Verbände didn´t have much equipment specially made for them. They mostly had to use what already "was there"!
