Enhanced realism (or what every subsim Kaleun should be wearing!)

How about this?

I have no connection with the firm but when I received a copy of their catalogue this morning - complete with a picture ofJürgen Prochnow as 'Der Alte' in 'Das Boot' (as a promotion for this product) - I thought I just had to share it . . .

Really.

That´s a nice pice of cloth. But i think it´s to modern for use with a WWII simulator.

When i was at sea with U17 (S196) and U33 (S183) we wore either BEGA-trowsers and t-shirts or the full BEGA-uniform.
BEGA stands for: BordEinsatzGefechtsAnzug
This cloth are made from leight, nonflammable and acidsave stuff. Realy comftable to wear. When it get wet it drys very fast and its stronger than a well (highpriced) jeans. When i leaved the german navy, i got one of those shirts as a gift from my crewmembers.

This shirt was used by me from april 2001 until march 2009 as you can see at the rank-signs on the shoulders

I captain a Type II boat, which is essentially a mobile sauna. I don't believe a long-sleeved wool sweater would be my first choice.

In all honesty though, that looks really nice, I just might pick one up.
