There were not meant to be insignia on the pea dot uniform. That said there is loads of evidence to show that it was worn. Sleeve eagles, shoulder boards were all seen , though I dont recal any collar tabs.
Keep it simple if you must add some bling, awards are much less common on dot.

better by design

I went for the green sleeve eagle on my OakA (spring/summer) and left it at that. With green eagle and totenkopf insignia for the matching cap.
Was tempting to add more but this would be less common and there's a couple of advantages to keeping it simple:
1) you're not tied to one unit in particular
2) nothing screaming SS to the easily ofended
3) fewer insignia to buy
4) less sewing to do
Number 4 was a significant win in my opinion.
cheers guys thanks for that, and i also agree with no4
no point having camo uniform with lots of badges pinned all over it sort of defeats the object
cheers
