Marshal Of Artillery Uniform.

I have just come across a picture of a Soviet NKVD general (?) and noticed that he is wearing a 1943 pattern Wave Green tunic but it is single breasted. I was not aware that these tunics were manufactured with a single breasted design. Can anybody shed any light on the matter - (Doug?).
I know there was a single breasted grey uniform for general officers and marshals before 1943 but judging from the photograph I would say that this one is definately Wave Green.
