Webgear. You can get away with the Ceapest US Stuff you can find. But you won't find me too happy with you. I'm at school right now, so I can't post the Link(it's saved on my Toolbar at home), but I'll post it around 4:30ish today.

Quick questions...so who is doing the german army? I'll probably join them since I did some quick research and confirmed that there were asian volunteers in the german army.

There were. A whole Japanese-American Unit. Just not with the 101st.

There were Asians in the US Military too, fool (google 442nt RCT, or Nisei). And as far as I know, no-one in the area is doing German Army. There are a few of us who are working on an SS unit (I happen to be the most vocal, and in the role of SS-UberFuhrer auf Gotterdamerung!) - there is a difference between German Army, and SS. SS PSKG Weicheluft. Don't expect to spend less doing German than American, theres a couple 'real nazi's' who are running the show. I'm not trying to turn you off to it - I am however, trying to set your expectations realistically.

A German Uniform is going to cost about $100. The smock is another $70. Web gear is about another 75-100 depending on what rifle you're using. Your rifle isn't going to be cheap, or its going to be damn near hand-made. If you're a machine gunner, your machine gun is expensive, or hand-made. You're still in need of headgear, boots, a bayonet, and a gas mask canister. Our equipment list is posted in the Getting Started Section.
