Uniform help

Post by Bullseye »

Hi Fellow Tankies

Is anyone able to provide me with a detailed picture of the crew commander's uniform that was worn during the late version of the Tiger 1 zimmermit.
Please and Thanks

Hi Bullseye,

That's not an easy question, which year, which outfit (SS, Hitlerjugend and so on...) which theatre of operations. Can you provide me with a bit more info, and I'll see what I can get for you....

Grtz, John.
