pocket and immediate area has four sets of loops for the general's decorations. There are

promoted to generalmajor he elected to upgrade the tunic with the addition of
general's insignia. Hiepe commanded Artillery Reg't. 17 from 1938 to 1940. He was
later promoted to general on February 1, 1942. As a walking out dress tunic for an
artillery colonel, the red piping was authorized. Fortunately for Hiepe, the red
piping was also standard for officers of general rank. The tunic has several areas
of minor repair and light mothing around the dark green collar area and upper rear
torso. The repairs include a small mended area near the left breast pocket and
left rear side. This is highly desirable named tunic. $8750. More Photos |

This exceptional tunic complete with its original accoutrements. Including the
grade 6-8 marksman's lanyard with 2 "acorns", ribbon bar and EK1. The matching,
sewn-in shoulder boards (red piped) indicate the rank of Hauptmann (captain) and
the Gothic cipher "B" shows he was in an Observation unit. The mis-matched
numerals "15" tells me at one point he was assigned to a different unit. One
of the rank "pips" was broken and is in the pocket (sorry) . I elected to not
repair this as I wanted this to be in as much of its "virgin" state as possible.
The collar tabs and boards match in wear. There is "vertigris" on the metallic
insignia indicating storage and age, The NCO style breast eagle is also "telling"
as to the authenticity of this wonderful tunic. The four pockets and eight button
front all having matching buttons and thread further indicating its "untouched"
condition. I love this piece. There are two small holes above
the bar that might indicate at one time or another a combat clasp was attached.
There is minor mothing evident on the back side of the wool collar revealing the
buckrum materal. This is not evident from the front so it displays well. There
are no interior labels or name tag. There is also a dagger slit. The exterior has
very minor moth tracking but nothing through the materal. This wonderful and
historic tunic is offered with all decorations for $1650. More Photos |
