Remembered Today:

German? Tunic from Youtube End Of War Video

Recommended Posts

I'm hoping somebody here could identify what tunic's are being used by the German soldiers in this video, it's really just out of pure curiosity as I just stumbled across the video and I couldn't really recognize the tunics and am left wondering if they're German or even from WW1...I know some of these types of low budget mini movies can be a bit dodgy in the historical accuracy department but I'm just curious!

Timestamps for the German soldiers: 2:08, 6:30.

 

Thanks!

Hello!

That´s nothing. "Uniforms" from Hollywood or somewhere else...  You won´t find a movie with 100% correct uniforms.

Apart from "All quiet on the Western Front" from 1930. They actually bought some old German army stuff.

They look like Swedish tunics that have converted(i.e breast pockets cut off)

 

(some examples from the web)

I have an unconverted Swedish jacket like that. The bottom one looks convincing to me. 

Interesting.
