I know nearly nothing about military things, so will not comment on the subject/object here. The image looks excellent. Perfect postwork and finishing touch. Wunderbar und ausgezeichnet [is this me ?! :)] SAM & SAAB
This is a perfect shot and whatever you did to it makes it look very authentic and nice. Since compulsory military service was abolished the German army is now looking for more voluntary recruits.
