Those of you who collect East German uniforms, what’s your favourite piece? It could be your rarest one, or your most decorated, or simply one with sentimental value. Tell me, I wanna see em!
For me it’s my black collar uniform. While not particularly rare, it’s my rarest one and it was the first one I ever won by auction.
Let me know and what is it about in detail
Am I finally on par with theuniformguy? Size 32 paratrooper boots unworn : )
Unfortunately these boots will never be worn either.
Picked up this sign recently. The guy selling it got it from a German immigrant who moved to the US after the Soviet Union collapsed.
Soviet flags and Russian symbols appeared in the heart of Berlin on May 9 as the Russian Embassy held a “Victory Day” rally.
Gathering at the city’s Soviet War Memorial, supporters carried flags and iconography that have become synonymous with Russia’s ongoing full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

Today we have a real rarity from the collection: a double-breasted suit for officers of the LS from the late 1960s, very rare to find today.
Please show me what you have from Luftschutz or Zivilverteidigung.
See this 1983 canvas shopper given me on a visit to East Berlin. If anyone is interested I am selling it see the EBay listing below

Where do i find east german militaria, other sites than germandot please, they don’t have everything I’m looking for. Most important things for me are: boots, bajonett, m56 Stahlhelm.
I purchased this German railway uniform (1988–1994 version) for 120,000 KRW (approximately 82 USD).
However, I am curious about the rank indicated by the shoulder boards: Reichsbahn-Obersekretär (Ranggruppe II), translated as Railway Chief Secretary (2nd Rank Group). I would like to know what level of position or status this rank held within the railway administration.
In addition, there is a visible trace on the shirt, approximately 10 cm in length, where a ribbon bar appears to have been removed. From a historical accuracy standpoint, which decorations or ribbon bars would be appropriate for this uniform?
