Well, in Normandy the germans were on guard at the bunkers or in front of the french requisitioned houses and castles. The bunkers could be of Heer, Kriegsmarine, Luftwaffe. However, they all wore the feldgrau uniform of the infantry .. During the guard belt and helmet are obligatory.

Below is an example of a Normandy bunker with kriegsmarine soldiers wearing the feldgrau uniform with the insignia of the navy.One of them ready for the guard service.
