This is the sales data from Facebook from the person who is offering the tunic. I hope he don't mind:
"...I found out the provenance for you sir. The tunic came from a vet named Henry that was with the 7th army as a mess sergeant. Henry said "he was setting up his "office" in an area and found that stuffed into a hole in the wall. He figured some guard ditched it." He was there until the fall of 45 feeding US troops and German Pows.
By the way, I also agree this is a super tunic on its own. However, it is overpriced unless there is iron clad provenance. That is what I told the seller via PM on FB.
