I have not seen any made like this before. Was this example ground recovered?

A lot of top notch combat awards. That research should keep you busy for a long time!! Regards Paul

You MUST get this set researched!! I am curious to see the Campaign medals he would have gotten!! This is a GREAT grouping!! paul

I hope that you did the Nevsky and/or the OG2!!!

WOW. That is insane. The plane does not look like anything German I have seen...

Thanks Barry!! Where do you find this stuff?

Now that is an amazing piece!! Is it possible to research these medals, like with the Soviet ones?? Do you have any information on this bar?

When did the cuff titles come out?

Nice tunic!! Who's was it?

Dave, I have learned much from you, as I am sure many others have. Please do not leave. Paul

Thanks for sharing Lorenzo. In the future, this will be considered a top personality piece!

Lorenzo, Where did you find your model? I like it a lot. I am very impressed with the Medical Halftrack!

Very impressive work Snoopy! I like the paint detail on the air craft.

You have a very steady hand to turn out such quality models. I look forward to seeing your WW1 work!

Thanks for the kind words. I am always learning new things as well... This is what makes the hobby such fun for me! Paul

And a pink set to an Engineering Officer, Major.

Another great medal. Ed, the background information makes for a much higher appreciation of what the medal represents.

Thanks Ed! Quite an interesting read...

Great to see you back!! Very nice example. Do you know anything about this conflict?

Here is an example of one of my sets constructed in a similar manner. It is for a TSD Administration Lt.

Hi Scott, The blue nebenfarbe is a little darker on the shoulder boards than on the tabs. Of course, the base color is dark green. Hi Joe, Thank you for your post. Yes, I have seen similar stitching on other collar tabs in my collection. I will find an example to post.

Thanks for the information, Alex! Welcome to the GMIC! You should show your wonderful Imperial Russian Medal Collection!

Thanks Nesredep, I wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year as well!

Back. Dark Green Branch color for the lower layer of the shoulder boards.

Just in this morning, an interesting Luftwaffe Administrative set. The interesting part is that the tabs are in cornflower blue versus the standard dark green. Talking to people with more experience than myself, the theory is that these belonged to a Luftwaffe Medical Administration Official. This branch is not listed in any reference books that I know of, so this is just a theory. Both Angolia and Davis say that the blue nebenfarbe on the shoulder boards was for early construction officials, yet the tabs were supposed to be dark green. Any other feedback or comments are welcome!
