What for a Wachmantel do i have? I only know that it is from Luftwaffen Stabsunteroffizier (StUffz). Thanks in advance.

Nice "M43" Wachmantel. Mid-war they made the collar bigger and added those vertical internal pockets to give more protection
against the cold at the Ostfront.

It looks unused.

I would post this at the Uniform section of this forum. This is an original coat... here in the reenactment section the discussion volves around reproductions.
