German Collar tabs. (Early days collecting)

[Waffenamt]

Had these a few years.

Not sure what era to be honest. All i know about them is im assuming the far right green one is from a medic perhaps?

[Peter Timowski]

Very nice

[Waffenamt]

Any info on them please Peter?

[Peter Timowski]

I'm afraid shoulder boards / epaulette's, i don't know anything about. I think i have a book, i will have a look if your interested 

[Mav352]

Waffenamt as far as I can make out they are as follows

1st row left to right

1 Hauptmann cavalry unit 

2 and 3 Hauptmann signals/ recon

4 Unteroffizer Luftwaffe Flak Artillery

5 Unterfeldwebel Luftwaffe Flak Artillery - the twisted cord usually denotes nco candidate but is an nco so maybe officer candidate.

2nd row left to right

1 Unterfeldwebel Luftwaffe Flak Artillery

2 Hauptmann Artillery Regiment 22? (Can't make out second number)

3 Feldwebel Infantry Regiment 3

4 Hauptmann Artillery Regiment 27

5 Feldwebel Artillery

6 Leutnant Artillery

7 Oberfeldwebel Medical

Arabic numerals usually refer to the regiment and Roman numerals to the wehrkreis (Military district) .

[Waffenamt]

Yes,Much appreciated Peter and Mav.

Great work Mav,i owe you a pint

 

These are items i was big into before i hit the ammo scene.

Got most of them way back when the pound was good against the dollar.

[Mav352]

No worries. They're very nice. I have a few myself but mostly collect tunics, combat equipment and personal gear.

[Waffenamt]

Very much appreciated. Thanks Mav

[Mav352]

My pleasure always glad to help

[Waffenamt]

will be posting the entire collection in the forums as soon as the new USB cable arrives for my digi-cam

[Mav352]

@WaffenamtLooking forward to seeing the rest of your collection.

[Waffenamt]

Hey Mav,Im just awaiting the arrival of a memory card for a digi cam i got given the other day.
Iphone a pain in the arse,so im going back to the good old basics. At the moment the cam only does 10 photos,eats batteries if im not careful.

Will picture them asap.

cheers

@Waffenamt these are obviously your bag mate,I bought these as reproduction and I am not saying otherwise but how exactly can you tell ? Axis stuff isn't my forte .

[Waffenamt]

No my friend,not my bag at all. I bought stuff in the early days with advice from the forum boys. Always kept away from SS stuff to be honest.

I thought for a ten spot with postage you couldn't go wrong,just to throw in a case  . I would just be interested to know what is probably a dead easy give away to the trained eye .
