Olham 164 Posted June 14, 2013 Just found this photo of Fliegerabteilung 300 "Pascha" at the Buddecke Website .The unit was established in Palestine in early 1916.Now I wonder wether all these "tropical uniforms" were real military designs?Or did they just add tropical helmets? Does anyone know? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slartibartfast 153 Posted June 14, 2013 They could have been Naval Officers seconded to the unit as I know most Naval uniforms are white for warmer climates... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olham 164 Posted June 14, 2013 Seems they really had designed official German tropical uniforms - I just found this picture at this link: http://www.treefrogtreasures.com/forum/showthread.php?33910-WWI-German-Band-in-Palestine/page2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
