Spanish Experimental amoeba uniforms.

A Spanish friend recently showed me these incredibly beautiful and extremely rare Amoeba uniforms and gave me permission to post them here..

They are cut similarly to French TAP47/56 and were tested by COE 51 ( Special Ops Company 51 ) stationed in Zaragosa, and also tested by a unit of the Spanish Air Force ( likely EZAPAC or it's predecessor ) in the very late 1970s.

Do enjoy...





First one up is a reversible smock, constructed with water resistant/ waterproof fabric similar to M59 uniforms.





                                                                                                                  



                                                                                                                  


                                                                                                                  

                                                                                                                 




The smock in last photo belonged to Capitan Julio Ferrer, a commander and founder of COE 51. Notice the COE qualification insignia above left chest pocket and his name tape above the other.

Another jewel.. This early M62 is badged to a Chief Para Instructor of the Spanish Air Force Para Squadron, predecessor of EZAPAC.





                                                                                                                  

Wow. First time I've ever seen that reversible para jacket. Pleated pockets!! That's not a normal Spanish feature, for sure.

The M62 is in gorgeous condition, which is drool worthy. But the rank badging! Unbelievable. It is stunning to me how few examples of badging for the Paras survived proportional to the uniforms.

The OD para jacket has a lot of interesting features on it. Reminds me a lot of Italian uniforms of the ame timeframe.
