Luftwaffe Camo Breast Eagle

[dramos]

Hello all!

It has been a while since I posted. Graduation was in December and work has kept me busy! Anyway, I have picked up a couple of things in the past few months that I wanted to share with you all. This camp eagle came from a lot of items I purchased from a guy who sold me a few other things (soon to be posted). All looks good to me but I enjoy hearing what others have to say. I'm not sure why but people ask some ridiculous money for breast eagles like this. This one appears to have been cut from some kind of camo smock or other uniform. Not sure why but it is what it is. The guy I got these from gave me the items up front and has asked me to make him a fair offer. Any help with that would be much appreciated.

Enjoy!

Glad to have my beliefs confirmed! Originally the color really threw me for a loop. I guess I was used to seeing these on blue material. It is a quite a beautiful pattern.

The cloth pattern is Grün meliert - material used for the "bone sack" or jump smock. NH

Indeed, like this.

Thank you Jerry! This is a nice pattern, very different from the camo of the time. This must be a beautiful piece of clothing when its whole.
