    Luftwaffe flight piped 4 pocket tunic

    Here is one I have had for a number of years and will be listing on the e-stand. I am pretty sure the eagle is originally sewn to the tunic. The question I have is on the hand sewing of the tabs and tresse. The thread burns clean but I am not certain on the sew job. My question is could an airman have done this type of work or does this usually indicate a post war sew. Thanks for the help.

                            Could be either. Hope it wasn't the company tailor! Many men of that period had some sewing experience (much more so than today). Looks kinda crude but...????

                              To me it looks that the Tresse and patches have been replaced..

                              Pic shows where the Tresse was before IMO..
