Here is an interesting and eerie piece of militaria. An extremely small sized (roughly 32" chest) "SS-BW" marked Mantel. Classic later war Dachau construction with what appears to be a wartime applied sleeve eagle. I'm assuming this was intended for a 14-15 year old HJ member, called to duty in '45. Youth served in all branches, and most divisions of the SS, but this extremely small size has me wondering if this was to be issued to a boy of the 38th SS "Nibelungen".
