    Luftwaffe Service Tunic - 2nd Lieutenant

    Purchased from Bill Shea recently. Only my 3rd tunic but I'm very happy with it. It has a second set of loops for a wound badge but my other medals are packed away so I can't put it on yet.

    More pictures in a few weeks once my collection is unpacked at my new place.

                  Sounds like there were a few eyes on this one.

                    That's right, you were not too far from missing this one looker tunic

                    That diving eagle is funny, has someone a period photo showing that ?

                    Please, for my personnal education, could you post a picture of the interior fully opened ? Thank you.

                      Regarding the eagle - Bill's theory was that it might have been off since the war an incorrectly reapplied. But I won't touch it.

                      This is the only other interior shot I have at the moment but I'll shoot more soon.

                        I'm not a tunic collector ( no room), but this is certainly a nice one. Congratulations.

                          Thanks Bob. Space is definitely an issue with these things (especially if you had to buy a lot of 13 mannequin torsos even though you only needed 3!).

                            If you have a small sized torso I could be interested...

                              Here's an update with the addition of the brocade belt/buckle and the wound badge.

                              I do have a set of trousers so I'm only short the boots and the sword now (and a mannequin).

                              Hope you enjoy:
