LW093 The Luftwaffe Musikkorps PRE ORDER

This new King & Country Luftwaffe Musikkorps has 22 marching musicians including woodwind, brass and percussion instruments.  This allowed the band to perform marching music, fanfares and even some classical concert repertoire.

As can be seen in our photos all of these Luftwaffe Musikkorps musicians are wearing the distinctive blue-grey, Luftwaffe uniforms adorned with the distinctive ‘Swallows Nests’ on both shoulders. In addition, they wear their trousers tucked into tall black leather boots.  Headgear for our band is the M35 Stalhelm (steel helmet) painted a pale blue / grey and decalled with the Luftwaffe eagle on the left side.  Also included with this band is the regimental ‘Schellenbaum’ known in English as the ‘jingling johnnie’.  Although not a musical instrument it was a key feature of many German military bands.
