0811U1 - (Imperial Prussia) - Prussian enlisted Hussar Attila (tunic) of Hussar Rgt. Czar Nicholas II of Russia , 1st Westphalian No. 8. Obergefreiter (larger NCO disc on collar) of the 1st Squadron (shoulder strap button0 dated 1914 issue and unit marked to H.R.8. Virtually mint condition with near perfect cording, nickel silver toggles and rosettes. This "Attila" is tailored in high quality Prussian blue wool. The rare large size is 38/40. At the start of the war in 1914, mobilization took place so fast that many Prussian regiments went to war wearing their pre-war uniforms until such time as enough field gray Attilas (introduced in 1910 for field wear) were produced and issued. Since Prussia was at war with both France and Russia (and keeping with the policy that all field wear shoulder straps would have numbers in lieu of regimental cyphers), this 1914 issue Attila has number eights (8's) for unit designation only. Prussian Hussar regiments normally consisted of five squadrons (companies) with No. 1 being the elite of the five (used for ceremonial, parade, shooting, sword and lance skills and horsemanship). The 8th Regiment was brigaded with the 11th Hussar Rgt. (2nd Westphalian ) and in 1914 fought immediately from Belgium to the Marne, Somme, Arras and Lille. From November 1914 Hussar Rgt. 8 fought on the Russian Front through 1915/16 and 1917/18 returning to the Western Front in 1918 to form part of the Guard Cavalry Rifle Brigade as assault infantry. This Attila has no mothing or stains and is in exceptional condition. A rare offering. $1995. More Photos

Fortunately for Hiepe, the red piping was also standard for officers of general rank. The tunic has several areas of minor repair and light mothing around the dark green collar area and upper rear torso. The repairs include a small mended area near the left breast pocket and left rear side. This is highly desirable named tunic. $8750. More Photos

101SO2 - SS Dachau Concentration Camp tunic of Hauptscharfuhrer Walter Miltsch. Witness to one of history's darkest episodes, this SS tunic is perhaps the only surviving example named to a concentration camp guard. Privately tailored, it corresponds in appearance to the Model 1935 standard army tunic which the SS adopted in March 1938. It is fully lined, an upgrade characteristic of private purchase uniforms for commissioned officers and senior NCOs. The liner fabric is light brown, rayon faux satin. Another feature of this tailor-made tunic is the inside button-down pocket on the right side. Below the opening is sewn the name tag reading, " Miltsch W. "

The tunic itself is cut from wool gabardine of officer's quality. Each sleeve has three vertical seams. The use of three vertical panels to form a sleeve instead of a single, broader length of material suggests that only a partial bolt may have been available. Enlisted grade wool was in supply at SS clothing depots, which were often established at concentration camps. Higher quality gabardine however, would likely be scarcer at these rural facilities. The non-regulation construction of the garment may indicate that the tailor was an inmate who customized the uniform according to available resources and his or her visual perception of the Model 1935's physical characteristics. This tunic has a custom tailored collar liner.

Though the surface of the fabric shows mothing, the striking insignia greatly enhances the tunic's overall appearance. The hand-sewn, right collar tab features a horizontal skull wrought in hand-embroidered aluminum wire. The left side rank tab indicates the rank of Hauptscharfuhrer (SS master sergeant). Upon Miltsch's promotion the tab was lifted to add a vertical Litzen strip and then sewn back down. The hand-sewn sleeve eagle is an officer's aluminum flatwire; like the skull tab a private purchase upgrade. The dark green wool felt collar and shoulder straps display the machine sewn silver tresse denoting sergeant's rank.

The matching shoulder straps with black underlay are textbook SS. They are bordered with extremely rare copper-brown waffenfarbe, the service branch color for concentration camp staff. The matching pebbled aluminum buttons are field gray and are all stamped "RZM/SS" on the reverse. Hand-sewn on the right sleeve is the silver-and-black SS Ehrenwinkel, "Old Fighters" chevron which individuals affiliated with the NSDAP prior to January 30, 1933, were authorized to wear. On the lower sleeve is also the dark green wool felt army specialty patch for Oberschirrmeister, or technical sergeant in the motor pool. It indicates the wearer was a senior mechanic and/or driver. "Ref. Cloth Insignia of the SS, by LTC. (Ret.) John R. Angolia Assisted by Stan Cook, Roger James Bender Publishing, Copyright 1983, pp. 432". Qualified SS personnel initially wore army trade patches on their uniforms. The style for Oberschirrmeister is one of the few patterns bordered in silver thread instead of white cotton. The upper left side of the tunic has three loops for a ribbon bar. There are two sets of loops for metal decorations below the pocket flap.

The grouping includes photocopies of original documents from Walter Miltsch's SS personnel file. They list details of his career such as postings, awards and performance evaluation. He was born near Rosenheim in the Bavarian Alps in 1909. Miltsch enlisted in the SA, the brown-shirted para-military organization that protected speakers and kept order at NSDAP assemblies, in November 1927. He transferred to the SS in 1936. Miltsch was posted to Dachau concentration camp where he was responsible for the transportation of inmates to Hartheim Castle where they were executed under the T4 euthenasia program in 1941. Later, Hauptscharfuhrer Miltsch was posted to Konzentrationslager Mauthausen. He survived the war. During the post-war period Miltsch was both a defendant and prosecution witness at war crimes trials of former SS personnel.

A veteran of a U.S. armored division brought Miltsch's tunic home as a war souvenir. Eventually, the veteran sold the tunic to a collector who owned it for the next 35 years.

0811SO1 - Waffen SS uniform named to a LAH major: In 1938, Luftwaffe Major Rudolf Fend transferred to the SS Verfugungstruppe, the combat arms branch of Germany's elite guard. The first uniform he purchased was this model 1937 tunic and breeches. The tunic is made of high quality officer's grade wool. It is fully lined in artificial silk. The shoulder boards are red piped, consistent with Fend's posting to air defense artillery. A set of second pattern ( first generation )LAH cyphers of the Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler, the Fuhrer's bodyguard regiment, are attached to the boards. The ciphers are die-stamped and finished in gold washed brass. The "Adolf Hitler" cuff title and runic collar tab are hand embroidered aluminum wire bullion. The sleeve eagle is also wrought in aluminum wire bullion and is of superior quality embroidery. On the left breast pocket are loops to attach Fend's Iron Cross First Class, Golden Wound Badge, and General Assault Badge. The last was awarded to artillery personnel for supporting ground combat operations. The tunic exhibits no tears or moth tracks. There are perspiration stains on the interior lining. The pocket name tag bears Fend's name. The officer's breeches match the tunic in wear and fabric. A U.S. veteran from Minnesota recovered Fend's uniform from an abandoned baggage train in France in August 1944. He brought it home as a war souvenir and sold it to an American collector. In 1980 a second owner contacted Fend, then a medical doctor in post-war Germany, and sent pictures of the uniform. Fend confirmed in their correspondence that the example offered here had been his uniform. His letter with original signature is included in the grouping. Fend also sent photocopies of images from his personal photo album. Among them is a copy of a period postcard depicting him directing the fire of his 88 mm battery against advancing Soviet armor. Copies of Fend's service record, including one of a wartime document describing a disciplinary action against him for abusing a subordinate, come with the uniform. The collector's correspondence with Fend is also included. Fend's personal letter chronicles his military service. His initial posting to the SS Verfugungstruppe was to the Regiment Deutschland. He served with this unit during the invasion of Poland in 1939. The following year Major Fend transferred to the Leibstandarte. He became chief of the "heavy" 88 mm flak battery. As related in his letter, the battery was engaged almost exclusively in ground combat during the campaigns in Greece and Russia. During 1942 Fend commanded the air defense artillery at Hitler's field headquarters for six months. He rejoined the LAH in January 1943 and participated in the battle of Kharkov. A photograph of him with the divisional commander Sepp Dietrich and Kurt Meyer taken during the fighting appears in several post-war books about the division. Fend was among LAH officers transferred to the new 12th SS Panzer Division Hitlerjugend in April 1943. The Hitler Youth Division and the LAH formed a panzer corps that fought in Normandy against the Allied landings in 1944. Fend served as corps flak artillery commander until the end of the war, his final rank a lieutenant colonel. Every post-war chronicle of the Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler mentions Rudolf Fend, and several volumes include period photographs of him. The uniform of this prominent officer in a legendary fighting force is now offered in its original, completely unaltered wartime condition, together with impeccable provenance and documentation as to its authenticity. Visor hat and Chained M36 dagger sold separately. Price upon request. More Photos
