Hello everyone.
Here I'm posting a recent barn find which I can not identify. It's some sort of ike jacket made from wool. It's in dark grey colour. It lacks epaulettes but they weren't cut of. It seems that it could be reworked in someway based on used material - the interior is sewn from fine blue and pink-ish cloth (it is found on the inside of the pocket and in the interior of some parts i.e. sleeves. There is no trace of producton label or any other markings at all.
It was found in Slovenia where Tito's partisans operated on italian and later german occupied area. The partisans were commonly aided by the british via airdrops. The supplies included everything from cloth, uniforms, arms, ammo, food etc... I should mention the also find also included british tanker coveralls and some other ww2 related objects hence posting this in the western allies subforum.
Now I know this information is far from any definite conclusions as the jacket might also be civil or post war or personal military production (possibly partisan). I am asking for pointing me to the direction of what it is. Does the cut fits the british or some other ally cut? Can the used material, buttons be recognized...
Thank you all in advance.
