    My "mint" tropical jacket

    Hi,

    I have aquired recently this KM tropical jacket.
    I woudl describe it as "textbook" based on Angolia/Schlicht chapter on tropical uniforms.

    Dutch manufacturer, paper tag still there. The sizes on the paper tag matches the size stamp fo the tunic itself. BAK stamp from same year.

    The jacket is un-issued and never worn. Belt hooks, buttons (smaller size for shoulder boards) in brown-olive color.
    Machine embroided yellow eagle on brown cloth, machine sewed to the jacket.
    The jacket has two large inside breast pockets as well as a pocket for the first aid package.
    I bought this tunic from Okaleaf Militaria. This dealer is sometimes under discussions here but was very satisfied with his fast and friendly service.

    I hope you like it.

    What kind of shoulder oards you would apply to this jacket ?

    Regards
    Christian
