Question Heer NCO Summer uniform

Hi folks, I purchased this NCO Summer uniform for $300. It looks good inside and out and I assume it is custom tailored. The style is a little unusual though since it seems to be an older style with the seam running down the back and a scallop with two buttons just above the belt. Wondering if this was a common choice for pattern.

Need help! WWII Germany Nazi Flag Double Sided 24×20

I just was recently given bunch of WWII stuff.

You guys help me out on this alot.

But need to know about the flag. I was told it was a tank flag. Its Double sided. Has some blood on it (looks like).

Size is 24x20 Inches.

Got some close up's on the stiching. One of its sides where i think the flag was hanging on the pole is look to be torn off.

Is it the real deal? Also can i have a value on this flag?

Thanks, Neubauer
