Can't resist this comment.......
Their gear looks as authentic as possible, no doubt. But they must be
the healthiest and best fed looking bunch ever to fill out Third Reich
uniforms............
The gauntness of limited food supply and poor quality at that, is one
bit of authenticity that we thankfully do not have need of.
Have just been reading about a Priest interned at Colditz and his
description of the reality of food for the average German after 1942,
let alone the average POW, is very stark.
Regards
Doug
