    Are they clipped in like a parachute smock? The one on the left looks like he is wearing hot pants!

        Thought so, thanks for confirming.

        How was it that this HJ division adapted to the Italian camo, was it because of stock availability and they happen to come across it more so than others or they chose to be unique with a distinctive look? LAH also has this affiliation with the Italian look.

        cheers

          I believe the cadre of LAH were in Italy during the fall.
          LAH supplied leading officers and NCOS to form the backbone of 12th.
          They logically brought supplies with them.

            Thanks for clarifying.

                  when the germans including leibstandarte were down in Italy trying to shore up Mussolinis regime they brought back with them Italian camo to compensate for their own material shortages

                            6th SS,

                              Just seen this sale on the stand and want to add it before it's gone forever to the thread.

                                Just giving this superb thread a bump. Like the Zeltbahn thread this should also be a sticky with the amount of information that it contains.

                                Superb work (again!) Owen
