I seem to get some variances in measurements when measuring the tabs (Maybe because they are cloth?). But the Angolia and Littlejohn dimensions are close enough to mine that I'd say they're okay.

Hello George,
Very nice tunic, just a question, is it brown or field-grey ?Comment

George,
thank very much for Your answer. It seems Angolia is right in his book. Now I have dimensions of that collar patches verified and know what to search...
(I've asked because IMO there is at least one mistake in that book...)Comment

Before several years was in local miltaria shop RAD blouse with collar reworked to bluish-dark green , with Heer collar patches and breast eagle.
There were only RAD markings on lining. I don't remember if that blouse (M39) had shoulderboards or not. At that time I though this blouse was reworked by dealer to achieve higher price. (In that years noone collect RAD items, every collector was looking for WH or SS items.) Today I am not so sure....
Yancy,
has Your M39 waist stripes inside?Comment
