Need help! Questions regarding Police Tunic & Visor set…
Hi all,
I just received this nice Police tunic and visor from a gentleman who found it stored away in a cabinet of a home. It is missing the sleeve patch, you can see the outline of it in one of the photos below. The cap is missing the insignia as well.
The questions I have are…
- What is the rank of this tunic?
- What is the proper term for this tunic (e.g. "Rural Gendarmerie…")?
- Based on the placement of the loops, what would some of the more likely medals be that this soldier would have worn on the left breast pocket so I can replace them?
- Would you typically see an armband on this tunic? It was with the tunic when found so I can only assume its original to it.
- Regarding the cap, what would be the proper eagle insignia for this particulat cap? You can see a partial outline of the original insignia in one of the photos below.
Thanks!
