Your opinion on this work jacket camouflaged MDLE 44. Poor condition with signs of wear. This jacket is original or a copy??
thank you

Camo looks good. I've never seen one made of camo. Always wondered what this HJ div kid is wearing under the smock...??? Could be a 4 pocket tunic.

He's wearing a 15 pocket jacket with tassels and a printed picture of Rudolph the nazi war reindeer printed on back ...

It's easy when you know where to find Italian passports

Yes, it could and, IMO, most likely is! The 12th SS division was well equipped with camo.

He’s wearing as palm-mock over a dot 4x pocket tunic (seen this more than once w/ the 12th).

Also In use with later smock in the 17 SS Panzergrenadier Division Götz von Berlichingen !
especially 37th SS-Panzergrenadier-Regiment and 38th SS-Panzergrenadier-Regiment

Lol


This could be wartime made or a post War POW/civilian garment. I would learn towards it being something made post war. I used to think that Camo items were not worn by POWS but photographs show they were.

IMHO POW use
