Hello mate, glad you enjoyed Arnhem. Cheaply? Well, as with so many other things, to some extent you get what you pay for. If you want to go bargain basement, then a grey Swedish army uniform would be your base. If you want to get a repro German uniform, then I would suggest Barry Lyndon (Spearhead Militaria store on ebay). Good quality tunic and jacket for
You've got nothing to ein, zwei, drei, vier
Hello pal. Welcome aboard, and as steiner says, cheap is not realy a problem, you just have to hunt for the stuff that "Looks right".
think I put a link in german uniform section, but I used HK keith though I went for M44 tunic an trews cost me

Is that by any chance for a she wolf impression? Female Flak gunners in the last days of the battle for berlin?
Hadn't thought of that 
but no this is a late war male impersonation 
have a couple of other things in pipeline tho.....who introduced me to this ridiculously addictive (read as costly ) past time 
wheres the edit button gone should add flak helferin trews are buttoned at side so not really any good for that 
welcome

wheres the edit button gone
Thanks, I didnt know that, well tbh I never looked into it. Are they by any chance similar to the Panzer wrap cut?
Well, you learn somthing new every day.

He's the one who came along with Gadge to Arnhem.
As a Chindit at Crich:

think its easier to explain with a piccie you should instantly see (albeit it these ones are luftwaffe) the buttons are on the sides. Though I've not found any reason why they made that way (tho being female I can kind of guess), and indeed many women wore the mens kit adapted. The pattern styling for helferin trews in gerneral was as below (with colour variations)
sorry for the post hijackmatt
Howdo Matt
