Wessel Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 (This is a transfer from the Army Administration thread)I have 3 HG tunics...2 attached:One an Officers (with the sand gogles!) and one an NCO's Flak. On this you can see where the cufftitle has been removed (and none too carefully!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luftwaffe Rules Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I can only drool when I see these tunics! Beautiful pieces!!A question on the second one, did only H.G. tunics have those sort cuff title bars at the end of the sleaves? TIA and all the best, Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 (edited) Jon, the two bars on the sleeves designated the NCO as a "Speiss" or senior NCO for the unit (similar to a first sergeant). Not certain if the KM used this 2-stripe degnation, but most all Heer, LW, and SS units used it.Cheers.Scott Edited March 4, 2008 by Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wessel Posted March 5, 2008 Author Share Posted March 5, 2008 Hi, Yes see attached photos (I think I'm duplicating here with the other thread currently running on HG Division, so apologies). The officers has no tailors label or no name tag.Also attaching my 3rd HG tunic...a Panzer wrap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wessel Posted May 5, 2008 Author Share Posted May 5, 2008 An update on my Feb 22nd post and the HG Flak FB.It was clear from the cuff that a cufftitle had been present, but had been cut off (there was even a tear at the rear of the cuff where the scissors had cut the cloth!!).So I bought from the recent HH auction an NCOs cuff title and had it applied. I know some collectors would not do this, but the cuff title is original, and I am only replacing that which was originally there (similar, say, to puting back an eagle on a cap). It brings the tunic back to what it was in total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woodeye Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 I like your jacket really well. I find it OK, if the jacket again her Original stocks agrees, because most jackets were ridded themselves after the war of her stocks. Since after the war many jackets were further carried. Privately or in captivity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
