ccj Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 I'd like opinions on this Horizon Blue Overcoat.I know most officer types were custom made but this one doesn't seem to closely resemble the norm. Is this real or impossible to know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccj Posted December 13, 2008 Author Share Posted December 13, 2008 While we're at it, let's discuss this 1913 pattern Officer's tunic. Belt missing and looks good but I'm not 100% sure if I should accept it as a WW1 tunic. Most have the belt or if missing the belt will have a strip of cloth covering the seem at the waist on the back of the tunic. I am no expert because you just dont see many of these.

ccj Posted December 13, 2008 Author Share Posted December 13, 2008 The back side.Note the seem in the middle of the waist. From the ones I've seen without a belt or missing a belt there is a strip of cloth covering this section of the waist. Is this tunic ok?I've learned that WW1 French tunics and overcoat have a large variation from one maker to the next. I'm not sure many adhered to regulations.
