Does anyone have any info regarding Luftwaffe gebirg troops or pics of gebirg kitted luftwaffe personnel.

Currently on ebay.de there are some interesting pics of Luftwaffe troops with Bergmutzes and edelweiss badges attached.

Thanks in advance.

Who would be opposing the Allied troops during this battle?

Thanks in advance

Does anyone know if luftwaffe officer's would have worn tunics made from emlisted man's wool for ground combat etc. Would they have worn a wool 4 pocket tunic or a wool fliegerbluse. I know they are some pics of Rommel wearing a something along this line - does anyone know, for example if a fallschi...

Not the small personal mess tins but the big on that carried goulash to the soldiers at the front.

What would the German term be for the rucksack type food carrier be for either the oval thermo type with the screw down lids or the one with the round screw lid?

I can't find any info on the web anywhere?

HG division was issued SS smocks and helmet covers, but were they issued zelts in the SS patterns?

16 kompanie was actually Regiments-Kampfzug, never equipped with bicycles at all and was used as a mini "firebrigade" unit under direct command of Heydte.

Desperately need info on a HG unit that would have used towed 20mm Flak in or around the Italian campaign - we are a UK HG re-enactment group that need to get our vehicles and flak done with the correct tactical markings in time for Beltring.

Thanks in advance

What units were involved in this area, were SS or FJ in action here

Anybody have an Idea of what these troops would have worn - particularly during the Arnhem battles. I am specifically interested as to wether they had Fliegerbluses or 4 pocket tunics - collar patches on white or just gulls - cuff titles etc? Any photographic evidence would be superb! thanks in adva...

Does anyone know what the Feldpost nummer was for Kampfgruppe Von der Heydte. Or because of its short lived nature, did they keep their parent Fallschirmjäger unit numbers?

Anybody have any info on what passwords/signs the Germans used to identify themselves with other german units - or any passwords that were used in this operation.

Thanks in Advance

I think the most likely thing would be abuse of medical supplies to get high, rather than go to all the trouble of heroin etc, just use morphine - taken from a prisoner of war's kit maybe? Pure speculation obviously - great question though.

I have heard that the Hermann Goring Div were issued them, this was from a vet, but I am afraid I have no photgraphic evidence to back this.

try richardaunderwood.co.uk, tons of them.
