WH Enlisted Black Panzer Uniform
Here are some photos (courtesy Bill Shea) of my 3-piece WH Enlisted Black Panzer Uniform. Although not named, all of the sizes indicate they probably all came from the same soldier. I took the jacket and overseas cap, along with panzer headphones, binoculars, etc. to the SOS and MAX shows a couple of years ago and set up with author Stephen Privatera. We stacked books around the mannequin stand; the book about an Army reconnaissance officer who served with three different panzer divisions on the Russian Front. The panzer uniform was 'eye candy' and drew a lot of people in. There were a lot of disappointed people because the panzer uniform was not for sale. On the other hand, Hermann (mannequin's name) sold a lot of books.

I can see why people were disappointed in it not being for sale. I'm sure it made for a great sales lure to get them to the table. It is a Beauty!!!!

Put up a sign that says NOT FOR SALE that should cut out some of the inquiries.

Believe it or not, surprisingly it wouldn't work. These guys only have eyes for the uniforms and are not looking at signs unless it's a price tag.

Well, this black panzer uniform is not complete without the Waffenrock to go to the parade in. Here is a great panzer NCO Waffenrock who is also a bandsman. The swallows nest is usually machine sewn into the seam of the tunic. On service tunics they use those small metal eyes and hooks to latch the nests on. I have a Fire Protection Police NCO with the swallows nests put on this way.
