DESCRIPTION:
Europa Militaria Series #17.An exciting series that features the soldier, both modern and historical. Examines camouflage patterns and uniform types used by German Army and Air Force troops during WWII, and those post-war patterns which were clearly derived from the Wehrmacht types. Each volume captures the men, their uniforms, their equipment and their weapons.
Helpful Primer S. Mondschein I am a modeller and wanted to get a better idea of the uniforms worn in various conditions so I can be more realistic in my painting. From this aspect, the book was fairly helpful as I have found to be true in general of the excellent Europa Militaria Series. The book is composed of color photos of real uniforms collected by the author over the last 15-20 years. They are worn by reenactors in somewh. Dan the Man I love Dan's books. I have posed in two of his books as a model re-enactor and collector of militaria. A few of the items in his book were mine, although maybe they are can not be seen sometimes. Dan is no doubt an expert in German and Roman militaria. Dan worked for more than 20 years as a historian for the US Army, and was even in Desert Storm. One thing you may not know is that most of his models. Good concept, good effort Certainly a good book for a reenactor to bridge the gap in knowledge between reenactments, but the title suggests a detailed study of issued camouflage uniform pieces explanation of sizing and maker's marks, development of the patterns themselves, but this is not the case.Nice pictures, but misses the mark as little time is spent detailing the rationale and aspects of the camouflage and the uniforms
