Not trying for Snarky here....and I really like the figure and may buy it, but did HJ officers really wear what looks like deep green leather overcoats in Normandy ?

Or is it the photo or artists interpretation.
 
lovely piece and yes the coat was a favoured piece of officer attire

Very nice figure Laurent!

The 12 SS HJ were quite well photographed in Normandy, at Rots and at the Abbaye D'Ardenne....it would have been nice to have an identifiable officer.

I like the figure very much, but my only reservation is it looks 'Uber-cool, Berlin 1946' rather than an actual representation of a HJ officer in Normandy. All he's missing is some U-boat leathers and he'll be strutting down the Berlin catwalk!

Cheers,
Jon.
