Hi guys,
I bought this picture thinking the soldier was wearning a M44 and it's only after receiving it that I realised it is a 3rd pattern tropical tunic.
Therefore I've a couple a questions coming to my mind:
- Is it possible to differentiate tropical collar tabs from late war ones on black and white pictures?
- How common is it to see soldiers wearing early dark green shoulder straps with tropical tunics?
- Last one: what do you see on the shoulder straps ? I see a "1" but I'm not sure about the letter above...
Thanks in advance for your opinion!
