Great looking tunics guys! I haven't added one of these for a while... Matt

Here is a garment perhaps not as attractive as most others in this thread but nonetheless intriguing IMO.

I got this one for peanuts at a recent militaria show; allegedly brought in the day before from a private household.

IMO a 100% genuine custom made piece in M44 style from "beute" material; in this case very likely a US HBT 1943 one-piece suite as used by tank crews during the Normandy campaign (see image).

The button holes are partially resewn for a better fit; a collar closure hook, loops for shoulder boards and a field dressing pocket were added. All insignia appear originally sewn and show consistent wear and aging.

Here's another one of my summer cloth tunics.
It was already shown in this thread, post 70 http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...=688996&page=5. Bought it off Matt (member afrikasandman). He added the eagle and I found a pair of PZ Jg shoulderboards that fits perfectly and a ribbon bar.
Hope you like it.

Another tunic made out of linen, but this one is partially lined.

Heavily sunfaded.
