Luftwaffe Service tunic for a Spiess of Flight
Here we have a typical NCO's tailor made service tunic in officer's quality.
This one is for the not so often seen rank of Spiess.
Tunic is overall in good condition, but it does have a bit of mothing, mostly on one of the cuffs, but there is also one small hole on one lapel, and another near the waist. These are mended and not very noticable really.
On the right breast is a nice hand applied officer's eagle.
The collar tabs are also hand applied and show signs of at least one promotion. So does the shoulder boards. Under one board we find the small button for the shooting lanyard.
The Spiess rings are machine sewn to the french cuffs.
All insignia looks originally applied to me.
The inside features a slit and hanger for a dagger, and an internal belt.
The lining has some staining and wear holes around the arm pits, but tunic is free of smell.
In the neck is a nice label from a Nürnberg tailor, but it has lost many stiches along the edges.
A textbook Spiess tunic.
