Hi Billy thanks for the info mate very helpful Jesus they did like their camo lol I remember that quote from robin williams in the film Good morning Vietnam
Some thing like this
" I see the Viet cong are wearing a nice little black number , very functional during the day put some pearls and some nice heels and your all good for an evening out "
Lol

I've just been Googling WSS Camo patterns and now need the Oprtex too. Where's the experts when we need them?

Good start - good luck with it.

p.s. if you want references try to get a copy of "Waffen-SS Uniforms in Colour Photographs" by Andrew Steven & Peter Amodio, published by Windrow and Greene in 1990 and reprinted in 2001 it seems. It's available on Amazon.

Not sure this is a Young bust, though, I would have thought this is an MJ Miniatures.
