Uniform patches for Armor Personnel, DAK Afrika Korps
Item #AR99052F
1/35 scale
$7.95 USD
NOTE: This is one of those grey areas between what was supposed to happen and what did happen. As troops left for Africa they were issued tropical clothing from either Heer or Luftwaffe stores. These would already have the appropriate style of national emblem and collar patches applied. Rank was then added by the wearer. This should also have been DAK-correct but there are numerous examples of temperate clothing rank badges (shoulder boards) applied as often the DAK version was not available.
(Requires AR99054F and helmet insignias AR99044 to complete uniform.)
