Description

Rare Waffen-SS M43 field tunic with insignia for a SS-Sturmmann serving with 13. Waffen-Gebirgs-Division der SS „Handschar“. The insignia were re-attached postwar but are absolutely original.
Collectors call it a "2-hole" tunic. This type was only issued to Waffen-SS troops.

A single "Handschar" division collar tab. Machine-embroidered type. Well worn infantry Waffen-SS shoulder boards. White silk piping. Removed tress and rank pips. They must have been worn as higher rank ones before.

RZM machine-embroidered sleeve eagle. EM/NCO type. Re-attached by hand. Hand-attached SS-Sturmmann sleeve chevron.

Typical silk lining. Size marked (hard to see). Removed field dressing pocket. 

Postwar attached award loops holding one L/13 marked Wound Badge in silver (damaged, bent) and one tombak Infantry Assault Badge in silver.

Small repairs. Overall good condition. Hard to find! Medium size.
