    Hello Gentlemen,
    Yesterday evening, i was at home with a friend of mine who also collects german army artifacts and we were talking while watching a period photo...
    On the photo the Unteroffizier Sepp is wearing a strange leather belt with an aluminium buckle. We came to the agreement that he was wearing a foreign produced belt reworked to german status before being reissued...we thought it might be a prewar czech belt...

    Please have a look to the photo below, Sepp is of course on the left

    This morning, we went to a local militaria fair.....and guess what.....yes...
    I found a reworked czech belt. What a strange feeling. I could not believe it. At first sight, the way it was rolled, i saw no difference with a standard leather belt, but when in hands, i spotted the all thing right away....
    NICE....
    Thanks


    nothing unusual at first sight

    You have got some good eyes to see that from your picture !! Guess I was busy admiring the tunics & caps to notice the belt

    Think the belt you found is pretty cool
