[reneblacky]

Here's some more from my lot that is easily accessible and my Sea Bees is 90 dated I have other nations cams but too hard to get to at the mo!

Just had to add this- The British one here was bartered with in Iraq by a former WRF member "QOTD" back when he was on operations there and kindly gave it to me

Datrus the three dealers I normaly look at for Bundesheer equipment and clothing have no ebsentarn parkas or trousers for sale but a quick search through German Ebay has paid off there are seven or eight parkas for sale right now ranging in price from 19EUR-39EUR I just keyed in Bundesheer into the Ebay Search bar. The ones I looked at appeared to be in good conditon there was a nice early dated hooded winter parka from 1959 .

Gday Mark,
Here,s an image of some of Rene,s Dutch ensignia. The blue rank shevrons appear to be a very similar color to the one's on your jacket .



Maybe your jacket is Dutch afterall.
Cheers,
Dave
Have had a look at the chevrons.
I'm pretty sure they are for a RNLAF Nato OR-3 ' Lance Corporal.'

Hay Rene,
I used one of your images in the thread.The one of your Dutch ensignia.
I hope that's OK.
If not I will remove It straight away.
Cheers mate.

Thanks Dave and you are right the insignia does look very similar to Rene's Dutch Insignia the DPM does have the classic swirl pattern to it used by the Dutch Its the construction of the tunic that still has me scratching my head .Here are some photos of my US ACU digi cam never have been much of a fan of the digital modern cams but one does need to include it in the modern cam collection.
