Heavily worn "been there" field tunic M42 for a Heer Infanterie Obergefreiter and NCO candidate (Unteroffizieranwärter). It comes with original white piped EM infantry shoulder boards and one piece of tress attached by machine instead of slipped on. Very unusual and interesting to see! The tress is grey and was produced in late war. Very interesting boards!
The color shows dark green cloth added period time for fashion reason. It was the intention to make it look more like an early M36 pattern. The tabs were re-atached by machine after the cloth was added.
The machine-woven EM breast eagle looks postwar re-attached to us.
Silk lining with signs of wear and damage. Size stamped as well as "Rb-number" stamped and "43" dated.
Overall really well worn tunic with sun-bleached seams. No moth damage however signs of wear and age.
