Hi,

Thanks

Could it be RAD looking at the lack of waffenfarbe on the boards?

Could well be Chris is there a maker stamp ie inside one of the pockets? I'd check the DAK forum no disrespect here, I do know they are quite scarce.

Hi, things I dont like about it... why would a maker put eppaulettes on it? They are the wrong ones anyway... and the seam runs a good 1.5cm wide of the edge, usually they are much closer.

uumm I'm not really up on TR wool I do know someone if its a big deal, anyway I'd like to know too. Did I tell you my father brought back a DAK cap and a belt buckle from North Africa, when I was about 12yrs the old bugger took them back out my bedroom, he found out they were worth a few bob "Mam, where's me hat?" " Idiot sold em, you should have hid it" LOL!
