Characteristics of American and German military uniforms during World War II.

The American military uniform is a relatively loose shirt style, which is convenient for marching and fighting and battlefield treatment. The armband on the left arm is the American flag.

Military uniforms are mostly green, and their helmets are also round dark green helmets.

Shoes are usually military boots and leather shoes.

German military uniforms have a suit-like, very serious feel, which also stems from the rigor of the Germans.

The German military uniform has a suit-style top, a belt around the waist, a pair of trousers from the suit, a pair of knee-length black military boots, and a gray steel helmet with the rear part protruding.

The Germans attach great importance to military appearance. Except for rest time, they are required to dress neatly and not even a button can be unbuttoned.

Therefore, it seems that the German soldiers wear their military uniforms neatly for a large part of the time, while the American soldiers often look like a group of guerrillas and homeless people, especially after the bloody battle, they look more like beggars.

The military uniform of the German Wehrmacht is gray-blue, with a falcon swastika on the chest, a German tricolor flag or an eagle on the helmet, or a gray field cap like the Eighth Route Army.

The Nazi SS wore a black military uniform. The armband on the left arm was a falcon swastika but not on the chest. The collar badge was the "SS" lightning logo. The same was true for the helmet. However, some SS divisions would print their division's logo on the helmet.

For example, soldiers of the 3rd "Skeleton" Armored Division have skulls printed on their helmets.

There are also some troops, such as the special forces of the Waffen SS - Stormtroopers, who wear a similar modern green jungle camouflage uniform.

American military uniforms are casual style, while German military uniforms are very formal, but German military uniforms look very imposing.

This also reflects the different cultures of the two countries.
