		The Waffen SS were the first large army group in the world to conduct scientific studies of the art of camouflage uniforms, and produced several different types that are specific to the SS only.

	Combat report of the 9.SS-Panzer-Division "Hohenstaufen" 7.03.44 - 7.24.44
		For this purpose, the Division was to investigate the possibilities of commitment in the sectors of the 10 SS Panzer Div and the 277 Infantry Div., determine routes of approach, and move the Artillery Regiment into such a position that it could support counterattacks in any direction and at any time.
		Concentration of the Division was greatly impeded and delayed by serious traffic jams on roads, harassing fire from the enemy artillery directed on villages along the routes of advance, and on road junctions, as well as by the strong enemy air activity.
		On the strength of this presumption, the 9th SS Pz Div was relieved during the night of 22/23 July by the 10th SS Pz Div in the eastern -- and by the 277 Inf Div in the western -- part of the sector, and then pulled out.
