Luftwaffe Officers Cloak #157403 06/04/2007 08:06 PM Joined: Jan 2006 Posts: 629 Likes: 2 Scotland T Tristan OP OP Tristan T Joined: Jan 2006 Posts: 629 Likes: 2 Scotland I was lucky enough to pick this up at an auction last year. Unfortunately the large arm eagle had been removed but I recently tracked one down and had it reappied and it looks the part! Will take another photo and post it Luftwaffe_Officers_Cloak.jpg (37.17 KB, 258 downloads)

I think these are even better than SS ones. I only have 3 Luft cuff-titled tunics..."Horst Wessel", "Richthofen" and "Hermann Goring".

I have one other Medical tunic. An interesting conversion from Waffenrock to Service Uniform ( very similar to the ones shown in the new waffenrock book pp. 448-457). This example has taken the piping off the front of the tunic , but not the inside! Army_Medic.jpg (33.85 KB, 72 downloads)

They are very collectable things. Weitze had a Flak one on his site a few weeks ago but I missed it...Ah well, we can't have everything. Collecting would be very dull if we could!

The medical Fliegerbluse is a rarity indeed. I feel very lucky to have it. You are right... it is difficult to find everything. I still have an extensive list~ Regards Paul
