First two pics...the first picture appears to be the tunic you own and in the second he appears to wear an Early enlisted Hammerhead eagle but perhaps it may be also a flatwire bevo. If you could post pics of the stitch marks I could maybe tell better.

Definately an early enlisted Hammerhead eagle or possibly an early enlisted VT Eagle...should not be too difficult I believe Greg Domian has one( Hammerhead) for sale on the estand in nice condition.

The beauty of this is that the enlisted eagles will fair better with age than bullion or wire ...what a fine tunic with actual photos of it in wear.

grouping

Wonderfull grouping! Very nice tunic that needs to be restored!

One question for the document-specialists:
Why does this man got two documents for the same medal "Ostmedaille"?
One document on the 12th july 1942 and the other one was the 13th of july 1942??

Congratulations on this acquisition.

I had the same question. The second document is actually from 1944 since he was obviously already Hauptsturmführer.

and here are a few shots from the process:

The man standing is Fritz Kramer. Jochen Peiper and Gustav Knittel are also on the picture. If you want i can give you the other names also.

Really great group. Congrats. I have seen some extremely rare "Hunde" material lately but that is far beyond this.

Regards
