A comprehensive chronological reference on Waffen-SS camouflage uniforms from 1936 to 1945. Perfect for military modelers, collectors, historians, and enthusiasts of military history and camouflage.
The book opens with the history of Waffen-SS camouflage and the work of Prof. Dr. Otto Schick, who studied nature to develop unique camouflage patterns. Special rank insignia designed to identify officers and NCOs without breaking the camouflage effect are also detailed.
A schematic overview presents every camouflage uniform piece along with the dates when different patterns were introduced. Full-color photos display all major SS camouflage patterns in detail, showing both their autumn and spring variants.
Featuring 1095 color photos of original Waffen-SS pieces, 160 original black-and-white photos, and 3 rare original color photos, this book also publishes previously unseen original pieces, including the camouflage coverall of a famous Knight’s Cross holder.
