I've had a few new DDR pick ups recently, one of them is this nice GT officer tunic dated 1971. Old style aluminum thread service collar tabs. Ribbon bar contains NVA distinguished service medal in bronze and three faithful service medals in all three grades. Below it is a proficiency badge. The tunic is notably greener than tunics from the 80s. The GT cuff title did not come into use until a few years later, but I've seen it being worn on dark collar tunics.
