I aquired this as part of a lot of km items a few years ago, the trousers I posted the other day. They are rbnr stamped and original late war, IMO.
Is this jacket a WWII KM pea jacket? Is it pre TR or early km, or is it post war?
You can see it had collar tabs and a sleeve chevron, but there is no clear sign of an eagle having been removed. There are no lables or stamps inside, and it has a single interior pocket and the jacket is lined in a wool type material. It has the correct sort of collar construction, with zigzag stitching.
It has two areas of damage, which have old looking repairs. This is the area where another pair of buttons might have been placed, but there are no button holes in the lapels.
Thanks for any comments and opinions, JerryB
