SS officer rank tab cut collar

[bnz. 42]

You are probably right, Ron.
Also nice to notice that this is piece of an "EM"-issued/officer-upgraded tunic (not tailor-made), which means a real "trench-fighter"

Brad,

Actually that is a common occurance. Nothing to raise red flags about.

Bob,

Didn't intend to raise a flag - just thought it was personally curious as I too have an SS tunic with the pips installed the same way!

Ron, this is a cool tab Thanks for sharing!
Nice work BNZ42, a great explanation.

You can see that the tab was originally sewn without the rank braids. Note the second braid is in slightly better condition than the first and attached with different thread. I think this collar tab is a pretty convincing field promotion example.
