Description
Evidently, it did exist. I don't care what you say, I have a lot of evidence to back it up.First Example:
Recon Panzerwrap with correct orange piping. Decorated multiple times. NCO rank.

Exterior view at zipper, medals, collartabs, shoulderboards.

Original maker markings.
(Another zipper panzerwrap exists in this mans collection, signals lemon-yellow piping.)
Second Example:
Tank Panzerwrap with correct pink piping. Decorated 6 times. Officer rank.

We see here that he is a officer in the Armor with multiple badges responding to his service in the Armor. This panzerwrap also has two pocket zippers rather than one. I believe it also has pockets but I'm not sure.

Closer examination of collartabs and rank. Also the zipper. Seems to be correct.
Also; unrelated but still very neat.

A pilots jacket of officer rank with cloth Iron Cross and flying badge.
Next thing you'll be seeing from me is the ultra-rare East German panzerwrapper which was only used for one year in the 1950s.
Some credit to Grand-Lobster-King for his anatomical base.

Well done, the German liked to alter their uniforms to their own tastes, so not unusual to see this happening.
The DDR version sounds interesting, thanks for sharing these wonders.

Correction:
Before anyone says anything. I made a mistake and incorrectly referred to Military Police/Recruiting piping as Recon. The piping is indeed orange on the Jacket and I do not know why.
I was not aware of any Military Police panzer divisions/jackets existing but it evidently does or the colors have faded.
The person who has this jacket in their collection has a original panzerwrap (w/ zipper) with lemon-yellow (signals) piping and I was thinking of it when I was writing the original description.

Also no, I will not change the colors to another color just because someone thinks it's wrong. The jacket in the picture has orange piping and I draw what I see, not what people WANT to see.
