This is a very odd tunic that I've had tucked away amidst my mainly Heer uniforms. It looks like an M43 which has never had breast pockets. It has what may be a LW Forestry eagle and makeshift flak boards. The eagle has either been re-positioned or is a replacement to an earlier one. No internal markings and someone has added shoulder padding at some point. There were 6 button holes down the front, but the top two have been closed.
Is it a complete fantasy piece or is there a wartime basis for this configuration?
Cheers,
Michael
