Would suspect a young kid from the 12th SS panzer. Possibly lied about his age to enlist? I know this happened a lot in the US during the war.
 
he is ESTONIAN note the skull is non typical he is not 12th SS for sure. Very young but to well dressed for late war period where the kids did front line duty so was thinking he was Eastern HJ maybe :canada1
 
He looks 8-10 years old , I would bet he is wearing a child's uniform to show off with his father .
 
I've seen other photos of small children in uniforms made for photographs and "play". This is also possible. I initially missed the sleeve shield and the collar tab does appear to to be the Estonian tab with the arm and sword.
 
now a days probably is reproduced but am only interested in the content of the pic , if it is a child's dress up uniform it certainly would look different but suspect it is a period pic. :canada1
