This is part two of a comprehensive two-volume reference that shows all the camouflage uniforms of the Waffen-SS. Using predominately modern color photographs, Volume 2 covers SS camouflage M44 Drill Uniforms, Fallschirmjäger Uniform, Panzer Uniforms, Winter Clothing, SS-VT/Waffen-SS Zeltbahnen, and concludes with a detailed look at each camouflage pattern including samples. Each example is displayed on a full mannequin with numerous photos showing how the clothing appeared from various angles. In addition, numerous detail images are used to clearly expose key features of the uniforms and equipment. The text explains the important details about the creation, manufacturing, and wear of each item. Period photos establish the wear of each item presented in the book.

I came to these books almost by accident. I was assisting a historian in dating and placing old war photographs in their proper context and as someone who focused more on the social and cultural history than the military history the details involved in identifying uniforms and such had never occurred to me. I knew enough to be able to generally place a person in a division or function. These volumes were eye-opening for me. I also have to admit I am not particularly interested in ever revisiting this area of WWII minutiae but I certainly appreciate the role it plays in aiding research and archiving.
The volumes include full color pictures with uniforms on mannequins as well as period photographs offering more context for understanding their usage. The text explains everything from the manufacture to the distribution and use of these uniforms. It is fascinating as both historical preservation and historical research.
If your area of interest includes WWII military uniforms this set is a must add for your reference library. If you're simply a completist on war books, this is also a necessary addition.
