I think, pic´s from Soldier´s "behind the frontline" are also intersting !

And for Waffen-SS aficionados....a lovely study of Fritz Freitag.

No, give me personality photos any day. To me, anonymous photos are boring, but you probably think the same about photos of senior officers. Each to his own.

Brian, thanks for sharing these nice photos with us. I am tired of to see combat pictures every day. Always the same old bulk. You "opened a window" into the private life every young SS soldier had to use intensively when he was back from the battlefields for some few days. A time when TV and internet was unknown, food was much too less and to be member of the Waffen SS was nothing special .

Here is one from me, not a home front photo but a couple of SS guys relaxing behind the front line and perhaps celebrating the award of an EK2.....
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....
If you really want to see photos showing SS men as normal people, here's one that might be just that.

And here are some "home" photos of a man from SS-Totenkopf. These photos were once in my collection, but I have retained the PC images because I think they are excellent quality photos, in particular the cigar shot. Not really my area of collecting anymore, but I hope you like them.

Woske, great pictures. You actually enriched this thread with absolutely funny pictures . I only have portraits and I think that the pics you posted are much more interesting. I never got such stunning photos. Thanks
