I just spotted this on ebay... I am as the title says, a bit dubious about it, what do you guys think?

My concerns start with the patches... How is it that they would have been sewn on originally while the liner was intact, and
yet there is no remnant of it around the patches on the inside? I would say that the patches were added later, and perhaps recently?
Why is the "Airborne tab" missing and yet seems to have been machine sewn, where the 101st was not?
You decide, but I will steer clear!
