Notes. The details as listed and or shown are accurate to the best of my knowledge & belief. We try very hard to be accurate. Before you complain about what you believe is an inaccuracy please keep in mind that all the images are of war time uniforms, medals, service ribbons and accoutrements. In war time the "by the book" precision of a ceremonial parade may be altered or compromised. Variations do and did exist. If you still believe we have made a mistake please email your input with as much detail as possible.

One of my main motivations for this
project was that for those who are really interested in these uniforms,
decorations and equipment, there are so few detailed pictures allowing a
clear look at them. Archival
photos are usually in grainy black-and-white.
Movie and television props are mostly bad -- and even when
they're correct they're small, blurry, low-resolution moving targets.
Therefore from childhood up I've always wondered, "What
color is that uniform? How
many feathers are on the wings of the Wehrmacht breast eagle?
What are the ribbons on that soldier's chest?
What did that weapon look like up close?"
So, for myself and for all the other kids who never got as good a
look as they would have liked, I created these images with all the
detail and accuracy I could manage.
