I thing on my Luft ruck they have been fixed in the wrong way round Please include some inside shots of your bread bag to Kevin in Deva Edited September 23, 2006 by Kev in Deva
Paul R Posted September 23, 2006 Posted September 23, 2006 Jon,You have done a great job! The new helmet is a nice touch!!
Luftwaffe Rules Posted September 23, 2006 Author Posted September 23, 2006 Sure Mr. Kevin I'll get the pics tomorrow. And you probably dont have your rucksack mounted wrong, those metal parts were made to go on Y straps hooks, but since I dont have any, I just took two of my moms old thin belts turn them around and used them to mount the rucksack, call it southern ingenuity I guess LOL. Thanks guys! All the best, Jon
JimZ Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 By no means an expert especially on German stuff but that breast eagle looks wrong to me. I had a similar one to that and as far as I know it was a DAK Tropical side cap badge. I always thought that the breast eagle badge followed the outline of the eagle closely. I might be wrong though! Anyone?
JimZ Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 Oh and another thing. I have same epualettes.. (My uncle father was Oberfeldwebel with Flak regiment based in german and later north italy where he was captured as a POW) Are those the right epualettes for the uniform. Red piping with sliver bullion thread looks correct (although for some reason I also have a pair with gold bullion thread) - But they kinda look wrong on that unform. Like I said...I am not an expert on all things german..... so its a chance to learn something new....Regards Jim
