• Welcome to the Vanguard Community

    These forums date back to the game's origins as the Crysis mod Traction Wars. Over the years the game and internet habits have evolved and discord.gg/vanguardww2 is now the principle home of the community.

    The team continue to read and reply to posts here, but we can be contacted more quickly on Discord.

And I believe it is a 10 round clip he has in the magazine well of the Beretta 38a.


At least we are making some progress. :p

1.5 Points to Apple, he is indeed wearing american camo for a helmet cover, but it isn't uniform....

And nope, those are 30 round clips, just the perspective makes it look smaller.

There is still one other thing you haven't picked up on :)

Yep :) And since I doubt anyone will get that last .5 point, the camo material is American camo parachute material. :)

One more than back to normal posting:



Two German Fallschirmjager in tropical uniforms. Both tropical uniforms are completely out of regulation. Spot the issues :D

Well the fella on the right is missing his epaulettes, and the fella on the left has the left side of his collar folded over his left epaulette.

Since no one got it, the issues are thus:



The FJ on the left is wearing a tropical tunic, however has sewn on continental breast eagle and rank insignia, as well as collar tabs (rather than just the gulls), and is using continental shoulderboards. Also, his EKII ribbon is sewn a button hole down from where it should be, presumably so the tunic can be worn more unbuttoned in the heat, and still show it nicely.

The FJ on the right has the same tropical tunic, but has privately done sewn in shoulderboards. He is using a continental gefreiter chevron, and collar tabs. Also, his breast eagle is not only a continental eagle, but a drop tail eagle, which was a pre-war Luftwaffe eagle pattern that was replaced around war's start, but still shows up from time to time.

In the end, this is just a minor demonstration in german uniforms, otherwise known as "Why the **** did they bother with regulations if none of them were going to follow them anyways"
