    Good one but no anchor buttons so could be Heer...or are there KM markings on it?

    Material looks like reversed M29 Italian camo...Repair? reenforcement of sleeve loning...
    looks reddish brown (brick red)...indicative of post war Italian camo...

      There's no mark in it... I just thought it was a KM's drillig
      Do you mean it could be an original heer's drillig tunic that has been dyed post-war and used in the Italian's army?

          No not Italian used nor dyed..
          Its an original ww2 German HBT drillich jacket with rapairs (cuff reenforcement panel) made of reversed italian camo cloth...
          (most likely war time done after all!).
          It is no doubt a genuine ww2 HBT tunic with an interestimng detail!!

            I'm back with new informations!
            I've discovered removed insignas signs (collar tabs, shoulder boards' button, breast eagle), pictures are following

            First, there are remains of red stitch on collar.

                Next, there are marks where two buttons (one on each shoulder) may have been.

                  Finally, after having looked carefully at the place where a breast eagle could have been, I've discovered old stitching marks.

                    Closer look of the front (outside), the second picture is of the inside (backing).
                    I hope you can see something, even if it's not obvious on the pictures I can assure that once in hand, it's visible!

                      superb forensic pics.
                      nice original hbt fatigue work jacket, plus evidence of various insignia. trousers are harder to find than the jacket, but such reed green models are still relatively scarce.
