Luftwaffe Formal Evening Dress Uniform, Rare Branch Color Beautiful evening dress uniform for a very rare branch color. Grouping consists of jacket, aiguillette, white & blue-grey vests and dress pants. Orange branch color was for “Officers and medical officers awaiting posting (at disposition)”. Roman numerals were worn by officers of regional air commands. Orange underlay was worn from 1935 until June of ’39 when they were instructed to wear the badge cloth of their previous assignment (or golden yellow if they never had a branch of service previously assigned to). The metal balloon device and oakleaves below it sewn to the sleeve was worn by members of the balloon service of the early DLV. The balloon was typically metal on blue gray badge cloth and a version exists with embroidered oakleaves below it (speculation is that it may have been the forerunner to the balloon pilots badge). |

tabs are machine-applied, shoulder straps are sew-in piped in white with a

Heer Infantry Officer Summer Weight Field Tunic Privately tailored six-button M41 style tunic, with four
pleated patch pockets with scalloped pocket flaps and French cuffs, made from
a green tropical-weight ribbed fabric.
Collar tabs are machine-applied, shoulder straps are sew-in piped in
white with a single gold pip.
Breast eagle is hand-applied. The grey collar underside reinforcement
fabric exhibits stitching lines for previous rhomboid (Luftwaffe?) style collar
tabs, and in fact you can feel the tabs still sewn in place underneath the fabric
(however there is no evidence they were sewn to this tunic collar). Very strange, but evidently the tailor
harvested the collar reinforcement from another tunic and never bothered to
remove the tabs! I imagine there is a slight possibility this officer served
in the FJ units, which may also explain it. Award loops on the left breast
pocket and loops above for a ribbon bar, where there is also a period repair.
The interior has lined sleeves and padded, reinforced shoulders and a dagger
hanger. |

Heer Lightweight Officers Uniform A lightweight/summer weight field
tunic for an Oberleutnant serving in the Cavalry units. Tunic is a five button front with
scalloped and pleated pockets and constructed from a lightweight cotton twill
fabric for wear in warmer climates or summer months. All insignia appears to be original to
the tunic and is in excellent condition showing just a modest amount of wear
from use. Note; the tabs
were removed when the tunic was modified with the addition of a green collar
and then resewn by hand. The bullion breast eagle is an excellent example and
still retains a nice, bright finish.
There is a six place ribbon bar attached to the loops on the left
breast pocket, but there are no other loops for badges. There is a large,
patch pocket on the left interior breast as well as a dagger hanger and clip.
The base tunic is a very clean example with no damages, but there is a some
slight discoloration and fading across the back of the tunic and across the
front upper breast area. It would
be a great tunic for a display focused on the Southern Russia conflict. |

acquire a fantastic grouping to an Infantry officer who was killed in
action. The feature item is his
mint service tunic, which is near flawless and was most likely his home tunic
worn for dress and formal occasions.

officer, including a studio portrait of him wearing this exact tunic with the
very distinct collars and collar tab placement. Among the various documents are; his
Wehrpass, identity books from his time served in the RAD, various photos from
his time in the service, a death notification personal letter from the
commanding officer to his wife, a hand-drawn map showing the location of his
burial in the field (with two other soldiers), some hand written letters and

Heer Panzer Officers Leather Coat Probably one of the more iconic uniform
items German officers wore was the leather greatcoat for officers. This particular piece makes for a
stunning display in soft, grey naturally worn leather highlighted by a pair
of pink piped, Oberleutnant of Panzer School No. 2 shoulderboards showing an
equal amount of wear and character.
The coat condition is very good exhibiting natural wear in all of the
expected places (button holes, shoulders, hems, sleeves) yet the leather is
still in great condition with a nice, soft, supple feel. The removable buttons are the same
grey color as the leather and in excellent condition. The interior features
are all in working condition (zippers, adjustment straps, buttons, etc.). |

Heer Artillery Oberst Tunic Privately tailored field blouse

breast pocket and a set of loops below the pocket. The right side breast pocket also has
a set of loops (likely German Cross).
The insignia is nicely age toned with a beautifully executed
hand-embroidered officers breast eagle and Oberst shoulderboards with the
crossed artillery gun devices embedded between the rank pips. Tailor’s label in the neck is for “Carl Koch” of
Hanover. This tunic shows evidence
of regular wear and use but is in wonderful condition. Unfortunately it is not named, but
with the award loops it’s likely this officer may have been promoted up
to General. |

Luftwaffe Major’s Officer Flyers Blouse If you like fliegerbluse’s,
this one makes for a spectacular display, as it is one of the nicest pieces
I’ve ever had to offer, based on quality and display asthetics. The blouse was obviously produced by a
very high quality tailor, though both the tailor label and officers name-tag
have been removed (indicating an acquisition directly from the family). It’s a nicely cut, medium size
tunic made from a very finely woven high quality tricot wool with closed
button front panel and curved, lower slash pockets. The silver bullion twist collar piping
is expertly attached, highlighting the yellow backed Major rank bullion
collar tabs. The shoulderboards
are regulation brite silver, five loop Major rank boards, also applied
correctly. All of the insignia are original to the tunic and indicate that it
was tailored to this rank, as there is no evidence of previous rank insignia
or upgrades. The left breast has loops for two awards. |

Heer 67th Infantry Regiment Oberst Tunic &
Greatcoat This is one of the nicer officer
uniform groupings I have come across.
Included in the grouping are a white piped officers tunic and
greatcoat to an Oberst (Colonel) of the 67th Infantry
regiment. While it is not named
inside, it should be quite easy to research. Both tunic and greatcoat have the
“67” ciphers attached to the boards between the pips and are
matching insignia. The tunic
breast eagle is one of the nicer hand embroidered officer eagles that
you’ll encounter, and looks stunning with the piping and
aguilette. Both tunic and
greatcoat are of a very small size (too small to fit a standard male
mannequin), but both are in superb condition (tunic does have a small repair
on the back shoulder area). |
