Description: Uniform consisting of tunic and breeches for a Feuerschutz Polizei Oberleutnant. The tunic is Pol M43 Feldbluse Neuer Art issue piece adapted for officer wear and the waffenfarbe is a pinkish red for Feuerschutz Polizei. All of the insignia is non-factory applied because it is a factory produced issue grade enlisted/NCO style tunic that was adapted for use by an officer. Very common practice in the Heer and logical that it would have occurred in the Polizei as well. The Feuerschutz Polizei had 8 motorized battalions that were deployed in the East and this officer may not have wanted to ruin a nice tailor made piece out in the field so he adapted an issue tunic just like many Heer officers did. However, it's doubtful he wore it much as the tunic is near stone mint condition, although one collar tab shows some damage to the bullion. The breeches are made of the exact same wool and also in excellent condition with a couple scattered moth holes but nothing serious at all. The seat of the breeches was taken in and that modification is evident when examining the interior of the breeches. There is the "ghost" outline of the original enlisted grade bevo Polizei arm eagle. I can provide more photos since the classifieds are limited to just ten. Shipping and insurance (if desired) are extra and will be the exact cost depending on location of the buyer.
