Just out of curiosity, is the blanket correct? I've seen several different kinds-grey with a black edge stripe and I've seen the one shown here as well, etc. But then again, I've got a solid grey blanket that I got from a German soldier years ago. Just what,exactly, Did the German army blankets actually look like? All I know is that they were made of coarse wool(and that's coarse with a capitol "C"!) I was always told, if it Didn't run your skin off like sand paper, then it wasn't an authentic WWII issue blanket!

Hello,
Nice try even if there are a few mistakes with your set up. The blanket, which IMO is a hospital example, looks well rolled but it's too long, it shouldn't go so low under the A-frame. At this time (Barbarossa) shirts were white, they had no collar and no breast pockets. The Feldmütze 34/35 should have a branch coloured soutache and the helmet shouldn't have a camouflaged cover. A little advice, when you take photos carrying a MG ammo box, put some weight inside as if there were ammo in it, it looks more natural when in hands...
Thanks for sharing your set up with us, again nice try...
Thanks
