SS Sahariana tunic photos in combat areas

[TWP]

Does anyone have photos of the SS Sahariana tunic being worn in actual combat areas? I have seen photos of them being worn in Corsica, but what about in combat areas?
Thanks

Also, would anyone who has one be kind enough to show them off?

This question or one similar was asked not that long ago so if you search this forum you will find a thread with pictures

Does a circa 1945 Bergen County New Jersey photo count? Below is a photo of my father (17 years old at the time) wearing an SS tropical uniform that my uncle mailed him in 1945. Interesting to note the pith helmet has Army shields (this helmet was with the uniform when my uncle found it on a shelf in a house) and my father is wearing it backwards!. I haven't seen the uniform in a number of years, but I clearly recall it having a tropical arm eagle, no collar tabs (never had them) and loops for shoulder boards. Also has the trousers. Lots of markings in the coat, but I can't remember what they were. It's currently packed away in my uncle's attic, so no photos are possible anytime soon.

Yes,

you can find plenty in the second Volume of"Uniforms of the Waffen-SS"by M.D.Weaver, at pgs 608/611/612/613/615/620/624/626/627/628
It's not much but that's a start anyway!
