KEEPING THE PANZERTRUPPE WARM:
The German Army developed the first parkas
for use during the winter of 1942/43.
The winter uniform was complete with coat w/hood, trousers and mittens it was also reversible with field gray on one side and white on the other.
The white side had a set of buttons on the arms and legs to attach color identification bands the colors changed daily and was used to identify friend from foe.

Famous WW2 Quote
"All that silly talk about the advance of science and such leaves me cold. Give me peace and a retarded science."Thomas Dodd, late 1945

I don't think they are recieving orders, more likely celebrating or being presented something, note the two wine bottles (well chilled I imagine) and the tray the officer is about to give to the crewman
