Military Uniforms of World War II

By Miss Cellania in Fashion, Weapons & War on Jun 23, 2009 at 11:30 pm

Captain’s uniforms of every military branch of the various countries that served in World War II, modeled by the same guy!

“My hobby deals strictly with World War II militaria & insignia.

However, rather than collecting the actual items, I collect and use high resolution photos of them to create Photoshop images that show myself in the uniform of a Captain (or equivalent rank) in whichever armed force and branch of service those insignia were worn by.

I love the guy’s expression, it’s so old fashioned. These days the military, particularly The Marines, insist on a decidedly sad/determined look to their soldierly pictures.

Seeing that face over and over was starting to creep me out.

Saw that guy years ago when I was trying to find information about Hugo Boss.
The images do get creepy after a while.

According to you Chaos.

You obviously don’t know your history concerning clandestine troups from “neutral” countries.

Turks were also “neutral” in Korea but that didn’t stop them from fighting there against the chinese.

Turkey declared war on Germany and Japan in April of 1945.

@Tim Giachetti

Turkey was part of the UN Troops in Korea, not neutral, they were allied with the USA, New Zaeland, the Netherlands and many more. There are no known records of Turkish Troops during World War 2, even if Hitler wished to have the Turks by his side, did not happen.
