I thought the horse camo prototype was originally designed to deliver nucliar weapons? but there was something wrong with the propulsion, it kept releasing toxic exhaust fumes

Realy?, wow, bet their are some stories their. Do you know what unit he was in?, Most were in Russia, or the Balkens. Or was he in one of the Volinter Units formend from men from Ocupied countries? Their were Muselum SS Units drawn from Yougslaivan nationals who fought with the Germans In The balkins aganst the partasians for example, their were also Scandivain and French SS Unit's.

are you sure he is a SS trooper brady? my uncle was in the german cavalry in WW2. i had read an artical in some unremember magazine that the SS used the traditional german cavalry symbol, der totenkamp or deathshead (a skull) for themselves. kind of simular to the US army rangers using black berets like the US CAV regiments and then getting the black beret for themselves until recently (that happened after vietnam). now im not comparing the waffen ss to rangers. but in my uncles pictures he has the symbol on his hat and he was not in the ss. he was in the german cavalry even before shickelgruber came along.

Well aside from the Cap and Tunic/smock, that are in the SS cmao patern, it is from P.183 of the book:

 Calvery of the Wehrmacht by Klaus Christan Richter.

  The section it is taken from is on the SS calvery units and the caption say's it is of an SS Calvery unit.

  For a while I realy got into reading on Whearmacht and SS calvery troops, the  Strong tradations and Equesterian skill's and righting's are still in many way's used to this day in Dersage(spelling) technique's.

  I bet your Uncle has some interesting stories from that time.
