They haven't improved at ALL Sapper44. What are you talking about?
Even in the photo you posted there are glaring horrendous atrocities, like the kid 3rd from the left's Bulgarian helmet or the HBT M36 tunics. Also the photo is cleverly taken to not show boots. The kid 3rd from the left is wearing WAL MART hiking boots/shoes. I've got plenty of photos to prove they haven't improved whatsoever.

Re: Why is this sort of thing permitted to happen....revisit
Here's some more recent photos from the other thread!
Here's a good photo of the Wal-Mart shoes!!!
I'm supposed to believe that is a kubel??? Also, their "222" is enough to make any German AFV enthusiast weep tears of absolute sadness. It's twice the size of a real one, damn near bright yellow and lime green, and has a party eagle stencilled on the side of it. The 2cm gun is a length of steel pipe and the coax is made of PVC. Neither are blank or propane firing.
LOVE that postwar spanish bazooka that they SWEAR up and down is a real Panzerschreck!!
As you can see, there is zero improvement on their part. They also bring a "blank firing" PaK gun that is poorly constructed and operated by kids that look like they are no more than 16 years old. It's a horrendous explosion, accident and massive lawsuit waiting to happen. These jokers are not permitted at almost all of the private tactical events here in Texas, however no show-battle organizer has the stones to enforce authenticity and get them thrown out! It really puts a damper on the experience for those of us that spend large sums of money to do it correctly. Their camp is an absolute eyesore made of Austrian, Swiss and other postwar zeltbahn/shelter halves, and modern camo netting!!!!

Re: Why is this sort of thing permitted to happen....revisit
I think I found the answer: The Rat Patrol, Season 2, Episode 19: The Decoy Raid. SS Captain Wansee wears the double eagle (as well as a Heer eagle on his cap). I saw this on Netflix.Awsome_guy wrote:Heer, no SS, probably Heer or mayby his a über Heer-SS?Newton30 wrote:Heer or waffen-SS ?

Any fool can purchase a uniform and think he is a " StrubanFuhrer " while drinking his Bud at the local bar with his crew getting warmed up for the final kampf with the bolshevics while their " armor " is parked in front of the bar striking awe to the five year olds
