Using this thread again to see what you think about this sidecap. Beeing new to LW headgear I am greatful for every input I can get. My own thoughts is that the silver band looks a bit rough, but the eagle looks an early droptail one.

Thank you

Peter

Thank you!

And thank you Dave for showing your pictures, a much nicer state than mine, but I was chasing for the more yellow grip.

Hello

I'm looking for information around a Flugzeugf?hrerabzeichen I purchased. I can tell from the feldpostnr L49178 scrached on it that it belongs to 2/NSG 7 after the 1/1 -44. Now I need som help/pointers regarding the name that is very faintly scrached on the backside.

Does someone know if a pilot with the name Lener was attached to 2/NSG 7?

That is at least what I after many hours can get from the name. Almost 100% sure of a 5 letter name ending with ner and Le is 85% certain.

Also any information regarding 2/Nsgr 7 and the Hs126 and Fiat CR 42 they flew is most welcome, I have the basic from Michael Holms WEBsite The LW 33-45. Would also love some pointers where to look for more information about 2/NSG7.

Thanks in advance!

And the revers

Friends,

I have seen this insignia worn in metal (picture of cause). It would be logical, I think, that an officers verison exsist but is this a real one? The thread looks funny and I have never sen this kind of insignia with black thread on it.

Thank you for you input!

Have a nice weekend.

Peter

Thank you Jon,

It looks nice on the shelf right now, and to a good price as well.

Peter

Thank you Paul and Jos.

Feels good with positive input. I will have it in my hands at the end of this week with a bit of luck.

Second image

Friends,

I am thinking of buying this LW em/nco side cap, What do you think, is it genuine? The eagle seems a bit like a turkey...

Thank you

Peter
