Alyson,
Thanks for the reply and insight. This is definately while I wanted peoples thoughts. The sewing isn't square to me on the backside of the boards where they are attached to the collar. I'm not sure if this is seen much or not.
Also, the tunic is dated 1944 which might reflect it's "new-looking" condition.
I'm not concerned with the ribbon bars. They are definately not original to the tunic but on there haphazardly just because the owner doesn't have a long one.
