RAD EM Tunic

[RobertE]

This is a newly arrived RAD tunic with originally applied insignia. The swastika armband is fully sewn all around, and the shield and tabs neatly applied. It looks as though it had shoulderboard loops, which were removed in the war.

I've not had one of these before, but think they are exceptionally well-made tunics - this is constructed every bit as well as a nice pre-war M36.

When were the shoulderboards ordered removed from these tunics?

Regards, Robert
