Cavalry tunic from vets family

[J. Csernus]

Hello gents,

I just wanted to share my latest addition, which came directly from the owners family. The soldiers was missed in action in January 1945, he earned his silver wound badge because he has last his right tumb in November 1944.
Sorry for the bad quality of the pictures, this were taken with my home, I will make some better ones tomorrow with my camera.
I hope you like it!

Thanks for watching!

The wool is surplus from the Dutch military and the tunics were made in Holland after the occupation started. "A" is the depot stamp for Amsterdam. The soft blue green wool is only seen these tunics.

Thanks a lot, I was unfamiliar with the wool, I will make some pictures tomorrow about the liner, the hole tunic was heavily retailored,
