    1. I don't know when these cuff titles were initiated, but a good book is "German Military Cuffbands 1784-Present" by Gordon Williamson (Bender Publishing)
    2. The cuff titles you posted are early versions, and I do not have either of these in my collection (I do have the later style of each though). The only cuff title I have like yours, with the same early letters, is a Jagdgeschwader M?lders example.
    3. Peter von Lukacs had some enlisted visor cap chinstraps, maybe drop him an email
    4. Can you show a closeup of the cuffs and underneath both collars? Any evidence of a breast eagle? Any markings? Any evidence of once having collar tabs or if shoulder boards were present? Loops? Buttons? This may look like a Fliegerbluse at first glance but it is missing a lot of characteristics.
    5. Nice Fliegerbluse woodeye (Holzauge?). I like the denazified eagle and pilot's badge; is the DRL badge denazified as well?
    6. Thanks a lot Bob, I appreciate it. HG stuff has always been of interest to me, next to NCO fighter pilot items!
    7. I believe the guy is German. He's an officer candidate and wearing what looks like a private purchase leather jacket with the Croatian shield on the wrong sleeve, and no Croatian pilot badge. The shield could have been an honorary award rather than one denoting where he came from.
    8. That Beobachter badge is terrible. Here is a genuine one
