Fabulous - yep - that's the word I'm looking for, gentlemen :)

Loving those LW FlaK troop photos

Some very good images, gentlemen!
Here's one just in the door. The tunic is obviously a later manufactured 1st pattern - but the detail I like is the clearly removed soutache on the cap.
Regards,...

Excellent!

I'd respectfully disagree. The lighting, cap fading and more importantly the proud profile of the cap (which is quite possibly a Lubstein) speak again'st a two-tone panelled cap - in my opinion....

Hi Nigel,
I'd say Micklei's cap has a proud peak, shading just slightly the lower section?
Here's a good image I recently picked up.

I'll see if I can find one photo I have of a wool tunic with tropical straps....that's also not a common image.

Here's one of mine - a bleached 1st pattern with collar tabs.

Hi Ralph,
The 2nd pattern tropical tunic with the Pz tabs on the collars is very uncommon - but certainly not unknown. Excellent image.

JP, The superb photo of Oberleutnant Gunther Micklei, signal's officer, 2Abt/PzRgt5. (KIA 27/5/42).

Great thread, JP!
The boots are 2nd type - quite possibly cut down but also maybe still entire - we'll never know...
