Very nice Heer M42 field blouse for an Infanterie Unteroffizier. The M42 pattern is actually quite hard to come by. This example was period time "downgraded" to look like an early M36 pattern.
The collar received a dark green cover, late war tabs were attached and dark green backing, dark green Unteroffizier shoulder boards and a dark green breast eagle.
Everything is entirely matching and was definitely down period time for fashion reason as proven by many period time photos.
Silk lining. Size stamped and M42 marked. Original attached buttons.
The breast eagle is machine-attached through the liner. You can see signs of a previously attached eagle. So either completely postwar attached or changed period time for a nicer eagle. Nobody will be able to tell you for sure.
