Uniform Feet Webbing Weapon Notes * Note - Helmet is post war and the leather liner is wrong. There are various eastern european post war helmets around on ebay and some are closer matches than others, thus it may be pot luck ordering from ebay. This Czech one is apparently about the closest match. ** Note - Tunic pictured is reproduction and does not have the flared sides of the originals. Pocketless versions were apparently more widespread. It should also have field shoulderboards with raspberry piping, and a white removable collar would be worn underneath to keep the tunic collar clean.
