PaulR Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Very well! Thank you very much. You have some great uniforms. Do you have any more Waffenrocks? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major General Bil4338 Posted March 6, 2016 Major General Share Posted March 6, 2016 These are really nice examples, something you don't see a lot of as most folk collect combat tunics, and nothing wrong with that!! thanks for posting.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mav352 Posted March 7, 2016 Author Share Posted March 7, 2016 Thanks very much guys. @Bil4338 I collect combat tunics as well but I love Waffenrocks. @PaulR I am hoping to get another 3 possibly 4 in the near future including a Medical one. I will post some pictures when I can. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horridohutch Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I have had one for years, it just hangs in the closet. Its original but the previous owner molested it with the EK2 ribbon, it is a nice uniform. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

horridohutch Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I bought this with some other items I got a few years back, I was after a helmet in the lot and the woman would not separate it from the pile. Your 'rocks look great. They are a very nice looking uniform. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mav352 Posted March 9, 2016 Author Share Posted March 9, 2016 (edited) As promised some pictures of the new Waffenrocks I got today. 1 Artillery unteroffizer with gun layers trade badge on lower left sleeve and 9th Company buttons on the shoulder boards. Note use of single width instead of the more usual double width tress.(Compare with the Medical Nco Waffenrock below ). Close up of the Gun layers trade badge.

Mav352 Posted March 9, 2016 Author Share Posted March 9, 2016 4 Medical Leutnant named (my current favorite). It has no internal belt or dagger hanger fitted it also lacks the slot for it to go through. I can't find any trace of buttons or butterfly clips having been fitted to take a collar liner Instead it has a false liner made from what appears to be white medal ribbon material. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major General Bil4338 Posted March 9, 2016 Major General Share Posted March 9, 2016 Beautiful tunics! That gun layer badge is a rarity in itself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulR Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Spectacular. The Medical NCO is an eye catcher. The lack of serpent/staff tells me medical administration or secondary support (laboratory or etc) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
