Questions for the forum about two pairs of tropical shoulder straps.
Are they original?
Also it has been suggested the Medical straps are for a greatcoat and the Panzer straps for the tropical shirt, is this correct?
Thank you for looking, KeithComment

I do not like the Panzer pair at all. Never seen originals made like that ???
The medical pair might have a chance as late 1942 but I am not fussed on them. They are definitely not for a tropical great-coat. The top side twill is a type often seen on reproductions. However they do have a chance to actually be original. Just not a desirable, sort after version of construction, except for being medical,
