2. Kompanie Uniform and Equipment Requirements

Below you will find a list of the required uniforms and equipment. Throughout your probationary year you will need to acquire the following items. Talk to a unit member about the best places to find certain items. Our impression stretches from the campaign in France in the summer of 1940, to the Battle of Kursk in July of 1943.

Our uniform is slightly different than that of the other units we will be fighting with, as most units do late war impressions. We are most at home when fighting the Russians, as our unit fought almost exclusively on the Eastern Front.

For new members we loan out items to allow them to participate while purchasing items of their own. 

You are not required to buy any items for any alternate impressions. 
All 2. Kompanie members are required to complete their "Totenkopf" impression only.
