Not sure on the tunic, but the eagle has been replaced, probably with a copy. Other signs that the tunic has been messed with, mismatched buttons. Also, unless there is proof that it was DAK, which for a luft trop tunic is unlikely, it is TROPICAL.
You can see clear signs of where another eagle used to be.

Whatever its just an opinion.
[QUOTE=S.Vestae;266284]Hello all,
please, can you help me about this DAK tunic ?
MANY THANKS !
Hello, I think like vonbond, the eagle is a copy.
You can look at the photos of mine, find here:
luftwaffe tropical tunic. Please!! Is it original???? thank you
Can you put photos as those of my tunic? thanks.
I also agree with Jerry.
Eagle is certainly a re-applied one - whether or not it is original is another question. I'll leave that answer to guys who have a better understanding of LW tropical insignia than me.
Regards,
Mark
Hi
Looks like a POW tunic brought back to life postwar somewhat. Not sure about the straps though. Jacket has seen some tough times, when is anyone's guess ? Do like the blue interior lining.
many thanks all
I would pass...
