When I was a teenager the Army Surplus shop somehow got in all these Ex-German officer great coats.
Everyone was wearing them cause they were cool , and now I remember , German Officer waist length double breasted jackets too.
I came home with it on and my Dad fucking lost his mind!!! Totally.
"You know how many relatives died.....beaches on Normandy..look at this fucking scar..10 million Jews"...then he really started tripping..
I had a near death experience when he said:
"Why didn't you buy a Nice Ex British Officers coat."
and I responded truthfully , imho , "The German ones are far better tailored"
