Westland in Holland? I suspect the jacket was restored but let's see what other think.

The backs

A view of the backs.

The tabs look replaced to me. What makes me think of this is the black threads remaining from the previous insignia and that the tabs do not seem to have the same age/wear as the collar itself.although it could be the photos/lighting). Who knows... it could be a period reused tunic. This did happen a bit, as it still does today.

It looks like a beautiful tunic

New pictures

I just made some new pics of the tabs. I discovered that the black threat is placed above the other one. So the ´green´ thread must be the original one. I think the black thread is from the collar.

Shoulderboards

New pic of the shoulderboards. As you can see the button is ´printed´ in the shoulderboard. Also a good sign
It fits perfectly.

Buttons front

Buttons front

The 6 buttons on the front are all marked with ´EXTRA FEIN´, and all the buttons on the pockets are all marked with ´U´ and ´40´. Is that the year of production (1940)?

I would now say the tabs and the eagle were replaced.

Thanks

Thanks for your reply Johnny, but i am still not convinced about those tabs.
