SARGE Posted April 25, 2019 Share #357 Posted April 25, 2019 An absolutely wonderful thread! SS camouflage is a perilous and slippery slope IMHO. I am afraid of it when I see it. This is mostly because I do not understand the subtleties of the various patterns and the construction. This thread is very helpful. Tell me, has anyone seen the so-called "Police" version of the M-44 SS camouflage jacket in period photographs? That is the "dot" pattern camo jacket with pleated breast pockets and un-pleated hip pockets. I have seen Polizei troops wearing the standard SS camouflage and the standard Heer camouflage. I have never seen a period photo of the Police style tunic in wear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbuehler Posted December 26, 2019 Share #359 Posted December 26, 2019 Thank you so very much for this absolutely superb presentation! A fantastic reference for all of us interested in these smocks. The way these were made suggests that they were strictly utilitarian and little effort was made to standardize the prints or construction as we would normally would expect to find on other types of uniforms. It seems as though no two smocks were exactly the same. The screening was obviously hand done with little consistency, which was really not required anyway.

His smock is indeed a mystery. The prone man with range finder appears to be wearing "VT lateral" on both helmet and smock. CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riflegreen297 Posted January 5, 2020 Share #361 Posted January 5, 2020 Just outstanding! Very education thread. M-38 Palm is my personal favorite. The colors and pattern looks like something a hippy made up after a tie-dye part in the 60's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The colors and pattern looks like something a hippy made up after a tie-dye part in the 60's. They are rather bizarre and fascinating. Stranger yet is the connection to the Waffen SS, one of history's more sinister military organizations. I prefer the various plantanenmuster types.
