Hi

In the picture a Wehrmacht tanker is shown. Black uniform, pink piping on shoulder straps and around deaths head collar insignia. Buttons metal.

The Wehrmacht used coloured piping to show branch of service in the army - tank soldiers Pink. artillery red, infantry white, I've also seen yellow, bright green and blue which I think were signals, military police and no idea at the moment but I can look it up later if you like.

Cheers

The 1st Cavalry Division were an exception, and had golden yellow piping instead of the Panzer pink.

Cheers,

Those collar patches and shoulder straps are standard fare for a Wehrmacht enlisted man of Panzer troops. Black patches and straps with pink piping edges. The death's heads on the patches are aluminum color.
