    It's a good deal, but size 36 is very small unfortunately. I asked for the measurements: Pit to pit : 18.1in(46cm) Shoulder to shoulder : 16.7in(42.5cm) Back from bottom of collar to hem : 23.2in(59cm) I missed another one in size 38 not long ago on Buyee, it got sniped for about the same price.

    If I might add, the word "Luftwaffe" means "Air force", and it is still used today. It's not exclusively related to WWI.
