This title offers a useful reference source for the uniform collector, modeller and student of military dress and equipment. The reader can trace the development of the colour and design of the Waffen-SS uniforms: all the uniforms worn in the 150 colour photographs presented here are rare, original items, from private collections. All major types of service uniform are illustrated, together with a full range of the unique camouflage clothing which was the hallmark of these much-feared divisions. Privates, NCOs, officers, infantrymen, mountain troopers, tank and assault gun crews are all illustrated here as they appeared on the actual battlefield, and described in detail.
