Ok, sorry,No, not me. I'm more orders, regulations and general stuff. Chad Williams is the buckle expert who has a book in progress![]()
Gary,Okay. As you have the Führerbluse and brown shirt these will enable you to create the winter uniform (Grosser Winterdienstanzug) worn by a Fähnleinführer in the rank of Oberjungzugführer. It consisted of:
Dienstmütze with eagle.
Brown shirt.
Black tie.
Fähnleinführer lanyard (green/white).
Blue Führerbluse with area sleeve triangle, DJ rune and DJ shoulder straps with buttons and the Oberjungzugführer insignia (two pips and the Litze).
Black breeches (you seem to have those already).
Black leather belt and cross-strap with HJ buckle and HJ/DJ knife.
Black high boots.
For inclement weather the Dienstmantel with area sleeve triangle, DJ rune, shoulder straps with buttons.
Ideally, you would need to remove the HJ straps and replace them with DJ straps (silver/grey Jungbann number and silver/grey cord). Any of the following Bann/Jungbann numbers will work with the Salzburg area sleeve triangle and Edelweiss badge:
578, 579, 580, 581, 582 and 583.
I've casually listed that stuff like you can just go out and find it which of course is going to be anything but easy. Not impossible though and it would be a fantastic project once finished. Good luck!
Thanks, Jack.Here is a photo of a Bann 155 Fähnleinführer at a summer camp whilst picking blueberries, flanked by two of his Pimpfe (1942). You can make out the boards' three pips to some extent and get a sense of its grey colour.

Thanks for your reply; following your advice, I changed the leader line to green/white.It looks great, and the doll goes well with it, too.![]()
Garry, bedankt voor je antwoord. Volgens mij zit de dolk linksachter. Zie foto.Ja, eindelijk een mannequin die er niet uitziet als een verdwaasde dorpsidioot. Goed zo. Het uniform is geweldig. Complimenten voor het in elkaar zetten!
Is de riem/band van zwart leer? Heeft hij zijn HJ/DJ-mes linksachter?
De Dienstmütze zou idealiter van dit type moeten zijn: Deutsches Jungvolk pet voor leiders (DJ Führermütze) | Hoofddeksel
Maar... er zijn genoeg voorschriften uit die periode die mensen opdragen te stoppen met het aanpassen van de standaard wintermuts door er zilveren bies aan toe te voegen, dus eigenlijk is de muts prima zoals hij is.
Garry, Thanks for your reply.Yes, at last a mannequin that doesn't look like an overwhelmed village idiot. Good stuff. The uniform is great. Well done on putting it together!
Is the belt/strap leather black? Does he have his HJ/DJ knife at rear-left?
The Dienstmütze should ideally be this type: Deutsches Jungvolk cap for leaders (DJ Führermütze) | Headgear
But.. there are plenty of orders from the period telling people to stop adapting the standard winter cap by adding the silver braid so actually the cap is fine as it is.
