FJ, in the combat jumps, would never be issued with an apron. Reason being they were to easy to spot which would give away the position. First a Jaeger, then a medic.

Aprons by all medic staff were usually worn
behind the lines in first aid posts or Red cross
stations not in forward areas as said above, also
it appears were only worn by medic staff involved
with or helping with medical surgery, not your
average stretcher bearer for instance.

Saying that if you still think you need one,
i managed to get one from Ebay under the
title butchers apron, it was for the Wife's
DRK Nurse impression, it worked out quite
well as butcher aprons are still made the
old fashioned way from canvas unlike
medical aprons which are now rubber or
plastic.
Good hunting, Pipes :wink:
