Polish 1st Armored division soldiers with Denim clothing
Hello everybody,
I am looking for original photos of soldiers from the 1st Polish Armored Division using Denim clothing. Not the overall, but the 2-piece set, jacket and pants. I've gone through my books several times but I can't really tell if it's the 2 piece set, or if it's denim they're wearing.
If this question has come up on the forum before, then I apologize for it.
Thanks in advance!
With kind and warm greetings, Pieter.

Hello,
The Denim's uniforms were used in the 1rst Polish Armored Division during summer 1944 :
- the denim two pieces, specially in the 10th Dragoons (the men of the 3rd Infantry Brigade worn rather the usual battledress made of serge).
- the denim tank suit in the armored regiment (I am looking for such a tank suit for years).
No rank on these denim dress, except from second lieutenant.
Cheers.

Many thanx for the great information so far!!
Kind regards, Pieter.

Hdllo Pieter,
The only signs authorised was the rank from second lieutenant (one star).
No divisionnal or regimental insignia, no titles POLAND, no black left shoulder, no Polish buttons...
I don't manage to post pictures... I send them on your mail and if you can post them ?
Best regards.
Stephane

Hello,
Interesting picture also.
It was taken before 1944.
