That's great Mike 
Seems to be all there as I can see but I'm maybe not the best person 
Once we are all happy with the list I'll certainly post it on the website.
Just thought, add metal Edellweiss on Bergmutze to list.

Niether actually James.
The gebirgs were issued with Stahlhelms but tended not to use them, sticking to the Bergmutze instead. It was one of those unit distinction thing. 'We're Gebirs and we don't need stahlhelms.' Unfortunately there were a lot of head wounds 
Concequently most members of the group only wear one in battles if required by the dreaded H&S. If you do get one, a nice round edge as opposed to a later raw edge is preferable but either is fine. Otherwise it's Bergmutze at all times. Unless you enter a building, you must remove headress immediately. |
