One one of the late war German Newsreels there is an Army tank commander wearing a splinter pattern version of an m43 cap with 2 button front. Of course today it would be considered a fake if it showed up. There is a lot of good stuff in the newsreels but few bother to watch closely.

Hi Mark

It`s a smokin hot camo there. The faceveil is also very nice and rare!
Any history behind the items?

Thanks for showing.

Gary that was that guy who clowned around on every forum and wrote a book about fakes and was the arch rival of Bill Stump..thank God I forgot his name.
He thought Third Reich items were possesed.

IMO a 100% fake.

IMO a 100% fake.

"Fake" is a strong word. But I would also consider it a postwar production piece.

Thank you all. A friend called me with it, in hand, and I decided to take a risk. It was not expensive so I have learned another valuable lesson.
