Original WW2 Era Photo Showing Group of Camouflaged Waffen-SS Soldiers Resting.

They are all wearing Tarnjackes and Tarnhelms. I’m not surewhere it when this photo was taken. You can also see an MGnext to one of them. I can’t make out whether it’s an MG34 or 42. Photo from my collection.

I would say mg 34. These are SSVT soldiers possibly on a pre war exercise. You can tell by the overseas cap.

I read online that early on the SSVT trained along side the LSSAH. Do you think it’s possible that this photo is showing that? I only ask because I’ve been trying to find more info and I can’t find any other SSVT photos that show them wearing that specific camo. As well as most of their SS runes are just the plane runes. Where as based on what I’ve seen, SSVT runes show the SS as well as a small number under it. I could be wrong though.

That’s beyond my knowledge but very interesting questions.
