          Guys.

          I could use some inspiration/suggestions for a ribbon bar for this tunic.

          One can see that it started with a small ribon bar and one loop was added to make room for a bigger one.

          Thanks

          Daniel.

            I like it! Small ribbon bar would still make sense as it seems less likely that this is WWI vetran tunic. The extra loop may have been added to support a medal bar. Ribbonbar suggestion: EK2, Winterschlacht, KVK2, WH 4 year.

              This one shows a lot of character, sweet and as it appears untouched! Nice to see a heimat uniform to have been so extensively used.

                Thanks kaiser and Zauber...

                Ive tried with a 4 piece bar, it a liiiitle to short, i guess a 5 piece would be great.

                Any suggestions there?

                I dont think it was for a medal bar, i think this is a field used tunic...

                  This is for a reserve officer, he probably did have WWI service as a Lt. etc. I would look for a ribbon bar with an Imperial EK II, Hindenburg with swords maybe one other WWI era service award and than WWII awards- KVK with swords, 4 year service medal, Ost etc. I would guess 5-7 awards but it will depend on the size of the ribbons. It is not for a medal bar, these were not worn on field service tunics. The extra loop was added during the War when he was in service to accommodate a couple more ribbons for the new wartime awards, this is normal to see.

                      Agreed, and I don't expect this to have been a field used tunic Daniel, not with this "junior" officer rank even though it is a reserve officer. The loops are certainly not to accommodate the CCC if you were referring to that possibility.

                        CCC?? i never thought of that....its clearly that its for ribbonbars.

                        I dont collect the CCC/EK1/Ost/ek2 buttonhole/Iab/swb etc etc mint unused tunics with loops for about just everything that a german soldier could have, i call them christmas trees.

                        The wear on this one seems fieldwear to me

                        Thanks for support here Johnny and Zauber

                          You want something like this- probably with a 4 year medal as well and maybe westwall for that unit etc. (I think the 6th ID was there early) if the loops are long enough.

                              In this photo...are there two types of wool used in this tunic...or is the contrast from sun/UV damage, and that makes the panels look so different from side to side?
