AK152 AK General Erwin Rommel (Summer Uniform)

Among the uniforms Rommel took with him when he transferred to North Africa was this standard Wehrmacht ‘White Summer Uniform’ jacket which was introduced in the 1930s in pre war Germany.

This was normally worn with the standard ‘feldgrau’ officer’s riding breeches complete with the double red stripes down the outside seams of the trousers denoting a senior General’s field rank.
