    Opinions on e-stand GJ tropical tunic

    What are everyone's thoughts in this tunic from the e-stand? I have been looking for a trop GJ officers tunic for a while. These are definitely out of my area of expertise, so any help is appreciated.

    My thoughts are that the Edelweiss and eagle are post-war replacements. Who knows about the boards..

    Base jacket looks good, sems to have a repair under the left arm. All insignia seems to be restored to the jacket IMO, as the collar tabs are not sitting equal on the collar, seems to be signs that the sleeve patch has been replaced, and the eagle as well.
    The insignia though matches nicely in condition with the jacket and may have been the original insignia for this particular jacket.
    Possibly the insignia was removed after the war and the jacket was worn as a civilian jacket.
    My opinion is it's a nice restored jacket, but I feel the price is a little high for what it is.

          Agreed, a summer tunic rather than what is typically referred to as "tropical." My concern was not with the tunic itself, but with the insignia.

          I think most would agree that they are reapplied, no?
