Paul R Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 Despite all of my looking, this is the only Civil Defence tunic I have been able to obtain. I remember missing one on Ebay that was for an Oberst several years ago. I have been kicking myself every since. It was a beautiful Army Officer's tunic with the cuff title, Officer's Collar Tabs, and boards. As you will notice, this summer tunic has a cuff title with equal wear to that on the tunic. The EM tab have the purple waffenfarbe. The boards are a bit strange, yet they are purple. The boards I am used to seeing are like the typical army boards, but with a purple waffenfarbe. Maybe this is some auxillary for the civil defense?Lets see your Civil Defense uniform related items! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure you have seen many Border Guard and Stasi Summer uniforms on ebay. None have cuff titles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tunic was one of those items that went for a small cost years ago when I was collecting DDR. The wear on the tabs, tunic, and CT seem consistant to me... but who knows. You have a lot more contact with this stuff than I. Welcome to the GMIC! I hope to see you around!RegardsPaul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
