There are several WWI renactment groups out there that feature the German Army in WWI. I remember seeing in one of them a source for German Army repros. You should be able to surf the web and find them.

Dwight,
I contacted the outfit in England about making a maternity tunic. They said the only way they would do it is if you take your body over there so they might measure it and also that you might pick out the material.
Regards,
Steve
