Paul R Posted April 5, 2008 Author Share Posted April 5, 2008 Beautiful and rarely seen nebenfarben!! I think that the gray medium level NCO boards COULD be early pre Nov40 Air Traffic Control. Check out the boards pictured in the section. They appear to have the gray nebenfarben. The book does not actually explain the nebenfarben in the second pattern insignia.

Gary B Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 (edited) Hi Paul, Normally I do not collect singles...only on exceptionally rare tabs, which I believe this is! And to think it was just sitting on my kitchen table when I came home....Interestingly its construction is identical to some of the reserve flak officer tabs I have. Same manufacturer??

Most likely from the same maker, I agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wessel Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 Paul..I was not aware of that! Was it a Regulation or just practice?The cuff title appears genuine, and well applied, but then any competent tailor can do that.I'll take a photo tonight and post then.
