Agreed! I bet he's an army officer and has Heer regimental (3 digit numerical) unit cyphers on the Lt shoulder boards.Originally posted by kammo man View Post
Those are not rank pips...nor SS cyphers (like a "D" or "LAH")Comment

Here's an example of such a 3 digit Heer unit cypher:
200 Pz. Gren. Reg. (90 pz.Div), worn on a DAK/Süd Front Kradmelder coatComment

On the pattern itself I am leaning towards oak#2 as it seems to have its drawings .
I could be wrong , as the picture is very dull .
But overall a super uniform and a awsome picture .

I agree with Mark, the hat and the jacket are probably made from Zelts etc.
A fair number of Army Medical and support personnel were attached to SS units and used a lot of their issue items as well. There also is the picture in the Davis book of the a Heer Officer wearing SS camo jacket.Comment

That is interesting. My picture is an original war-time print on Agfa-Lupex paper. What book did you see it in?Originally posted by pzrwest View PostComment

In one of the camo books, there is a pic of a Heer solider sporting a nice SS camo cap. I also have 1 or 2 photos of what im pretty sure are heer soldiers wearing SS smocks... I guess you took what you could get. I would post pics put im a long ways away from them currently and to try and have the gf dig them out would be a lost cause. Great photo though! Matt
