    I also have this picture in my collection, it's a bit blurry. Foto was taken in Kalocsa/Hungary 1944. The guy is wearing a tunic with seven buttons, it could be an other dutch converted tunic? or something else...?

      Here's a Finnish example, an interesting picture, which fellow WAF member Olli Wikberg published in his "Meine Ehre Heist Treue" book.
      It was shown already in the Waffen SS section earlier this year (of course with Olli's approval...thanks Olli!)
      So for the sake of this topic, I'm repeating it here!
      Note the Finnish Waffen SS volunteer NCO on leave in Finland now donning his (old) Finnish M36 summer tunic...
      now modified with Waffen SS insignia! Posing with him a Finnish Army officer buddy in an unmodified version of the same tunic,
      which makes for a neat comparison!
      Note buttonless fly front and no skirt pockets... the pants are also Finnish...with bell bottoms...very un-German!!

        7 buttons could very well be Dutch!

          There is one untouched Norwegian greyblue prewar tunic converted to Frw.legion Norwegen. Presumed early stage.
