I have to disagree with you Paul....the Heer Sonderführer did not have Generals.... Sonderführer possessed the general rank of officers or NCO;s without any specific officer or NCO rank, they had "position designations" (Dienstbezeichungen) instead of the usual soldiers grades... Highest Dienstbezeichungen in the Heer end was Bataillionsführer or Abteilungsführer in Stellengruppe "B" What you might have is a set of tabs for a General in the Heeresjustizbeamte (and if thtas the case....whew baby those are rare...... ......light blue is a confirmed nebenfarbe on gene

I just put the dots together this morning...an old freind of mine made the connection... The RCMP office appeared to be closed as no one answered the phone.
