Nice pics! can someone post more photos of the white tunic in the LW, how many variants it has? the same applies for the panzer crews? I see a lot of picture of the white tunic of Carius, so I was wondering that maybe there is some photo of Michael Wittmann in white tunic too.

thanks to all!

Nice Photos Johny! btw in the second pic, I can barely see what should be a swastika and a Reichsadler, the design of these buttons on Hitler's tunic were different from the others?

thanks.

Hi,

SS-Obersturmführer Franz Stangl, Kommandant at Sobibor and Treblinka also liked to wear a white uniform.

There is a black & white photo of him wearing it in Gitta Sereny's book "Into that darkness". The quality is not great, and obviously photos taken in the camp are rare, but it appears similar to the uniform of the SS Cavalryman featured earlier on this thread. A google image search for Franz Stangl will bring the picture up fairly quickly.

Episode 3 of "Auschwitz - The Nazis and the Final Solution" features a dramatisation of the events at Treblinka and shows Stangl in his white uniform.

I am not aware of any other KZ Kommandant wearing one, so it may be a quirk of Stangl's.

Hope this helps.

kind regards,
"If I looked like Himmler, I wouldn't go on about race so much"
- Albert Forster, Gauleiter Danzig West Prussia
