This one is a proper item.
Ok, so after finding the Bundeswehr tunic on flea-bay with it's tampered with decorations, a fellow forum member and I came to an agreement of sale, whereby I will take ownership of this tunic and visor cap.
The visor cap;
And the tunic;
I look forward to being the curator of these items soon.
Thanks to fellow forum member TWS.
A very nice gesture from an esteemed forum member. Well done TWS.. Smitty
I am glad he was willing to sell these as they come from his time of service. Also a relief knowing they are original and complete. Better than paying for some spruced up tunic where they didn't even get the decorations right!by Rakkasan187
Well done.
Isken, which the cap guru wisely wrote made no caps in the III. Reich, save for the few SS caps I own from the same firm.
As I wrote elsewhere, I think the Bw things are a fine field to collect, even if the shades of grey of the Bw may not hold quite the same allure
as for some of field grey or whatever.
These are future foetid woolens, although not quite woolen.
I also like that I will know the name of the owner of these pieces. It gives the linkage I enjoy with such things.
They are also a significant part of my life, to be sure.
Well, these are heading to a good home and will remain there for quite some time. I am glad to have them.
Beautiful uniform and hat!!!
