Laurence Strong Posted October 4, 2006 Author Posted October 4, 2006 Another unauthorized Oberleutnant single SB with green and red underlay
Laurence Strong Posted October 4, 2006 Author Posted October 4, 2006 Unauthorize Major with pink underlay. There are 10 bends on the board
Laurence Strong Posted October 4, 2006 Author Posted October 4, 2006 To give you an idea on the size of these, here's how they should sell them....by the foot
Laurence Strong Posted October 4, 2006 Author Posted October 4, 2006 (edited) Air Warning Service (Luftschutze-warndienst--LSW)The Air Warning Service was established in 1935. It's purpose was to warn the population of air raids. It's members were volunteers or, during the war drafted according to the War Emergency Laws. The female personnel were the Auxiliaries of the Air Warning Service Edited October 4, 2006 by Laurence Strong
Laurence Strong Posted October 4, 2006 Author Posted October 4, 2006 LSW.-Warnzentralfuhrer, Hauptmann equivalent
Laurence Strong Posted October 4, 2006 Author Posted October 4, 2006 Next is a bit of an unknown, it's a shoulder board for an official of the medium career with a dark green waffenfarbe and a grey nebenfarbe and the equivalent rank of Feldwebel.,And thats where the mystery begins, I cant find what that colour stands for. IIRC someone had a set of grey tabs what was the consensus on those?
Laurence Strong Posted October 4, 2006 Author Posted October 4, 2006 A side view showing the grey nebenfarbe
Laurence Strong Posted October 4, 2006 Author Posted October 4, 2006 Another unknown. It looks like a shoulder cord for an NCO with the rank of Oberfelwebel with a Low of Medium career as per wartime orders as there is no underlay
Laurence Strong Posted October 4, 2006 Author Posted October 4, 2006 (edited) Another one, looks like an unauthorized shoulder cord for a NCO also Edited October 4, 2006 by Laurence Strong
Laurence Strong Posted October 4, 2006 Author Posted October 4, 2006 Last one for now. Thanks for stoping by, any comments and opinions especialy on these last 4 would be greatly appreciated Another NCO? shoulder cord

Paul R Posted October 5, 2006 Posted October 5, 2006 Gathering of the clan;Starting with Peter J's orphan red nebenfarbe board, looks like I am only missing Black, white, golden brown, bark blue and apple green.I will keep my eyes open for the missing admin boards. I would love to see you with all of them!!! The Apple Green would be one heck of a find as they were only used for a very short amount of time... early on!RegardsPaul
