Some hot weather stuff

I don't really have much tropical or DAK related stuff in my collection, but I do have a few bits and pieces.

Here's a first patten tropical helmet

Together with a Infanterie Leutnant's jacket, tropical trousers and a tropical EM belt. Belt buckle is 1940 dated and the belt itself is 1941 dated.
(Also a very nice pair of GJ boots, but these are not of tropical issue)
The last pictures was taken with my mobile phone, so not the best quality.

Very nice Bjorn, It amazes me how you can come by such terrific items, and in very nice condition, all of that looks new, have you got a small troll somewhere going back in time and bringing this gear back, if so let me know his name and what food he eats and how he wants to be paid LOL

Thanks Dave 
There is no Troll but I have always had very good luck, when it comes to find and obtain nice stuff.
Also German ww2 militaria has become rather expensive in the last few years so when I occasionally buy a new item for my collection, I am very picky  of what I spend my hard earned money on.

Very nice @Björn! Tropical and DAK are my most favorite to collect, but expensive now!
