    Portrait: Interesting uniform

    Hi,

    Here is a very late-war portrait that I recently got. Looks like he's wearing an Army M36 and converted it to SS. You still can clearly see his breast eagle and army arm eagle. I'll try to make a better scan tonight, as the picture is actually much sharper then this scan represents.

    Regards,

    J-W

          Thank you for the comments so far.

          Gary; unfortunately I do not have much further information... All I know is that he was involved in the battle for Berlin and died there.

                  Tunic

                  So this means all those SS tunics with the shadow of a Heer eagle were really SS tunics all along !!

                      WoW! Now that is one great photo! It is really amazing how obvious the discoloration in the picture is.
