    Ministerialdirigent/Generalintendant (Admin-General) great coat

    I have always had a soft spot for the Admin branches of the German WWII armed forces & just found this great coat.
    Never thought I’d find one of these — still looking for tunic that I believe in — used some WH Admin General’s collar tabs that I put on top of a regular WH General’s tunic for display. Figured this piece was worth sharing (unfortunately, it’s not named)…

              Looks great.

              But what tell the neighborhood if constantly the OKW meet in the garden.

                  The Ost ribbon belongs to the Heer general tunic that belongs under the admin tabs. It's just for display.

                  Kurt - what a fabulous find and a great display!

                    Thank you gentlemen for the kind words.

                    @MadJack - don't know what the neighbors really think as they don't tell me !

                    @herkules - as Adam S. already pointed out, only the visor and coat are Admin General. Didn't want to take photos without a tunic underneath so I pinned some Admin General's collar tabs onto another uniform. This is what the uniform really looks like (the one on the left) and the first owner was am Infantry Generalmajor who did earn the Winterschlacht im Osten ribbon....
