Well there gorget's obviously, weather or not they have any use as a piece of body armour I dont know..but I tend to think not.
I know though that they were used as decorations to soldiers and that they were issued to Hitlers Personal SS Body guards in Parades and stuff.
They were also given to border guards and patrol guards.
None the less they look cool.
if I'm right its for the "feldgendarmie" sort of mp you can call it..hated by many normal german troops because they did everything to get higher up in rank and turn in soldiers that wont lsiten..or jsut beat them up and stuff
excuse me for my sucky english. im only 15 years old and dutch.
btw i dont know if its available in english. you can read books of SVEN HASSEL. he was in a deathsquadron at the easternfront.. there's some stuff about how they hated feldgendarmie in it aswell.

The field overcoat looks great, but I donīt like the Heer Railway Protection Gorget.

You dont think so? I like it, I would personally like to see a much bulkier German Infantry model though and then use the Field coat and the Gorget.
So anyone up for this job?
