nice tunic !
Would love to hear constructive comments on these so I can learn if there is anything wrong with it (not saying there is, let that be noted)

Well, I have never seen a german tun ic of the period with that pocket construction or sleeve construction. It certainly is not a textbook tropical tunic by any stretch...

Sing "tiny photos" to the tune of Don Ho's "Tiny Bubbles" I see a uniform but not enough detail to say much more. Please post larger photos.

John : There are many possibilities : the Germans reissued a lot os captured tunics and equipment . If captured in Africa , it could be British , Australian , New Zealand or even Italian .Also see my reused American parachute material made into a Falschirmjaeger Anorak on the " Fallschirmjaeger Forum " under "Camo Anorak ",posted 9-07 .

I won't argue with that. And I'm not very experienced with other countries tropical tunics of the period. Does anyone have a clue to this tunic's origin???
