Uniforms of the Reich
I will be posting (as time and research materials allow) in depth articles on various service uniforms of the Third Reich.
while I cannot do every uniform, the uniforms I am choosing are relevant to the majority of pictures I post, such as Waffen SS, Luftwaffe ground forces etc etc.
When possible I will use real uniform items as well as elaborate on fabric content (such as cellulose, cotton and wool) which will not only help understand the uniforms time and usage, but also explain the decline in quality due to: a) material shortages, b) quality control, c) the usage of slave/forced labor.
I hope you folks will enjoy these posts.
Signed sincerely,
Michael ‘Dieter’ Kalb
