Plaid Service Shirt

[-Ray-]

Hi, I acquired this example sometime ago. Don't see too many of these. Therefore my knowledge is limited other than the construction which is typical to conventional Wehrmacht cut issue shirts.

This example is illustrated in "Torpedo Los" I fully understand that these issue service shirts were not exclusive to the KM branch, but more often than not the affiliation is well illustrated. Would these be unknowingly to me after market produced as knock offs? In hand I personally like this example very much. Comments welcome. Thanks for your interest.

That is a clothing item I have never seen before. Thanks for posting it. They also wore civilian shirts very often as well. Nice item.

I'm sure we could agree, normally this is an item that definitely would have been worn be beyond repair post war.
