Wow, thanks for the quick response.

 

[Lt_Kettch]

Aren't they called Feldj

 

[kapulA]

Nope,Feldgendar iirc.

 

[Peter.Steele]

Yeah, that's definitely a ringkragen. It's sorta the descendent of the cuirass worn by knights and old-school heavy cavalry.

That almost looks like a reenactment photo. Everything looks too clean. Not saying it is though. I could be wrong.

Interesting medallion though.

Directing traffic is not the dirtiest job in a war
