Off the top of my head, there seems to be a good deal more wear to the eagle than to the tabs and boards. Chris, can you get a shot o fthe back of the collar where the boards are sewn?

The eagle does look pretty wasted compared to the rest of the tunic. Although it does look like a standard CA officers breast eagle and not Admiral quality, I suppose the rank could have been upgraded from a lower rank and he just left the standard CA officers quality breast eagle. More pics are needed..at least for me.

Hello, the base tunic is a Heer model, with the hole inside for the dagger strap, but this is not rare, only that is not the KM tunic model. I agree that the eagle and the collar tabs and shoulders not match, and the collar tabs look very big for me. I don't like the hand stitching of the collar tabs, in a general rank tunic usually these were machine swen. Probably not for me.

Here you have a link to a thread where you can see the one that is in Ambleteuse Museum and mine.
