DAK Der Spiess

Hammer's Africaners · 02-11-2012, 08:46 PM

Africa Korps First Sergeant "Der Spiess" the mother of the company/unit. A rank designated by the tress on the collar and two bands on each sleeve. Not always the senior NCO rank and time in the company but senior by designation to the position.

One from the Afrika Korps, based on a photo
Faded tress is gross grain ribbon added to the uniform collar and sleeves
Figure is from Cyber Hobby or Dragon
Cap is from Ulrich Schaffer which was a Luftwaffe with added Wehrmacht eagle.
Tunic from Cyber Hobby Bayerlin, I think
Shirt, pants, boots are Cyber Hobby or Dragon
Awards from Dragon
Belt from another manufacturer
May still add waffen farbe to the cap and panzer skulls to the tunic to represent a panzer spiess from the 15th or 21st panzer division.
