Breast Eagle. It's cloth is worn and has been torn. Seems that it was there forever.

A close up of the buttons and the whistle which i found in the breast pocket. That was a total surprise. Seller had forgotten about it and i found it by luck

Inside details of the tunic. Unfortunately no markings can be seen today.

Looks to be a very good and original Kusten art summer tunic, sometimes called a 'brown' tunic (though many are a green colour), but it not does not look to be made from HBT (herring bone twill), more like cotton. Odd that it has a partial lining, mostly these are unlined. Might be early, as the cut is very like the reichsheer rock tunics, especially the back.

Regards,

Jerry

There are some things that get posted on here that I think are great, but that I could do without. This, however, is one of those kinds of things that I would kill to have in my collection.

This would look great with pants and a single decal Kriegsmarine M40.
