diggeraone,

I was going to try and type out a breakdown, but instead, here’s the best overall German uniform site I’ve yet found:

All your answers should be there.

Enjoy your modeling…

Well I have done a bit of research into this , and this is what I have found ,… Panzer (tank crews) had pink piping assault gun , artillery crews had red piping , I always thought it was the other way around however many sites and books have stated the opposite , so I will have to go with that , medics had blue ,infantry white luftwaffe was yellow ? not sure there as I am a ground modeler Ss I believe had silver on regular infantry

It always made me wonder “pink”? The Germans want to reshape their tank divisions and rebuild moral after WWI, so they give them macho black uniforms and then top it off with pink.
