Luger Lanyards and Shoulder Straps

Roadkill · 09-05-2002, 01:09 AM

Been looking at this great photo again, what are the epaulet type insignia on the soldier kneeling in the left foreground? He is also wearing a different tunic than the others, his has three buttons on each sleeve. There are two styles of hats and no helmets. Also no holsters present, all have their Lugers in their pocket. The straps are run under the epaulet straps on their right shoulder, possibly hooking to their belt or a belt loop. No visible canteens, ammo pouches, ect., no knives present. Three of have no buttons on their coat. Interesting?
