Well Heer today...gone tomorrow. B&H, I think I am going to badge up as SS with the other but no cam as:

1. The sentry boxes that are to be manufactured have hit an organisational glitch but if it works in the game and the organisers agree, I can make two though someone else may have to paint them?

2. Unless the game plan needs a Heer group, it is probably not worth it.

I have resigned myself to not worrying about SS as:

1. Not all of them were evil surely
2. I am shit so I will in fact be taking the piss out of SS which is commendable in my book
3. If the royal family can dress up as Nazis, it must be OK to be SS

So, on to insignia. I have green shoulder boards, chest eagle and collar tabs. Is the SS lot putting a black chest eagle, ss collar tabs and is there going to be a cuff title. What shoulder boards should get and any advice where from?

Feld grey and ankle boots for me.
My tunic has a green collar and is badged as GD, Is that going to be a problem, green collar & cuff title on right sleeve?

Weird lot ....

Peppered - agree , never play as SS myself. have one as a bling /piss up uniform but always play Heer in game .

Anyway think HS has taken the lead for uniform bling .

Er , no black SS uniform please ..I know the offer is in good faith and no probs with it ......... but just no . I didn't dig the Hitler bit last year either despite finding it funny .

I was completley unaware of Andys 'visit' until it had all happened as was in a heavy firefight on the other end of the site.

Possibly thinking on wearing LW FJ, since no one else is - not keen on wearing my jackboots.

Hmm thinking about it - Slippers is the answer - nice and quiet for creeping round the tunnels :rofl:

*Note to self: bring feldgrau paint, and spray Del's uniform while he's asleep. He'll never notice in the gloom*

I did think about that uniform, but my Summer Kriegsmarine Rating's cap is a bit on the bright side, being white.

:wink: :lol:

It's the CiA Organiser's fault - they mention Fallschirmjäger in the Game Info thread and also in the title of this thread.

I wouldn't like any of us to be accused of being forcist :rofl:

With the amount of kit you own I don't think you could be accused of being forcist. :lol:

We could put you to work cleaning the place like a true rating, that would soon dull it down. :mrgreen:

Ahem, I think you'll find that Boshman started this thread.

In the interests of remaining non-elitist and as inclusive as possible we gave a number of options for people to attend. Can you imagine the fallout if we tried to be prescriptive?!

Wear what you like (within reason Chommers) but it would look good if all the Germans were dressed the same.
