M43 Eagle
Originally posted by Mike Davis View Post.
I have seen this a lot were the uniform is cut to gain access to the edge of the eagle and then it is ripped or cut off. The stitching is also very unusual, looks like a "double" or lock stitch with white bobbin and green top thread which is very unusual.
Tunic eagles I believe to be originally applied are sewn through with a single line of thread like the original subject of the post.

Eagle
Sorry if I was not clear. It looks like there is a small hole going through the tunic fabric and lining on the inside. If you are looking at the back of the Eagle it would be to your upper right by the wing tip. Uusally this is from someone cutting under the eagle to remove it.
The attaching threads, there are two colors, one field grey and one white. This is from a "lock stitch", bobbin thread is white and shows on the reverse but not the front. I have not seen it used with white thread before in period sewing.
I am not saying it is not period applied but it is unusual and seems to have the hole right by the wing-tip. It may just be the photo
