Bavarian Infantry M15 Bluse

[Hoss]

Late war Bluse with Schlaufen Id'd to soldier 3rd company 8th Bayr Infantry Regiment and appears to be marked B.A.I 1917 but the right side of the stamp mark is faint. Strange area size marked I've not seen before on a Tunic.

I think this is a nice bluse from what I can see in the photos.

Would be easier to find straps than the tunic.

What depot marks does it have, BA I? I really cant make it out.

Eric,

A great 1917 piece, with the correct truncated Borte and shoulder Schlaufen.

I dont find a Schönmetzler in the 8th Inf Regt though. I spent a good half hour looking.. but very possible tunics move within a division.

Thanks Gents for the kind comments I love it maybe I'll build up a mannequin again this summer.
