I found a nice M36 which had the clear traces of SS collar tabs, the arm eagle and no visible signs of a breast eagle.
Because of the clear traces I thought it would be a neat project restoring the tunic with the intention of putting it up for display.
-----------------------------------
I would like you to notice the following two remarks which I discovered during the restoration:
1. On the collars you in one of the last pics see the clear traces of SS collar tabs. Over the areas there – in a certain light – are faint signs of previous mounted WH collar tabs.
2. Over the right breast pocket there - also in a certain light - is a very faint black shadow and a black line on top of the area where an eagle probably was sewn on.
I would like to underline that you really have to study the jacket closely to notice these points, though !!!
In a display the jacket looks really nice !!!
-----------------------------------
I'm looking very much forward to reading your comments.
Please consider that:
Most tunics were stripped: http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...gebirgsj%E4ger
Many tunics weren't perfect: http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...d.php?t=398061
