nesredep Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Luftwaffe Medical CorpsThe Medical Branch of the Luftwaffe was one of the original career fields present when the Luftwaffe came out into the open on March 01, 1935. The standard waffenfarbe for the Luftwaffe Medical branch was cornflower blue. When attached to the Hermann Goering Division and the Luftwaffe Field Division, the solid blue collar tabs and shoulder boards were to be retained, by order(although as most rules, this one seemed to have been broken from time to time).These men and officers filled roles ranging from direct patient care in the field to research and development of medications and procedures to drafting health awareness cartoons. Dentists were also included in the medical corps.Ranking nomenclature:Enlisted:Sanitatssoldat- soldatSanitatsobersoldat- OberschutzSanitatsgrefeiter- GrefeiterSanitatsobergrefeiter- ObergrefeiterSanitatsunteroffizier- UnteroffizierSanitatsunterfeldwebel- UnterfeldwebelSanitatsfeldwebel- FeldwebelSanitatsoberfeldwebel- OberfeldwebelSanitatsstabsfeldwebel- StabsfeldwebelOfficer:Assistenzarzt- LeutnantOberarzt- OberleutnantStabsarzt- HauptmannOberstabsarzt- MajorOberfeldarzt- OberstleutnantOberstarzt- OberstGeneralarzt- GeneralmajorGeneralstabsarzt- GeneralleutnantGeneraloberstabsarzt- Generaloberst/Head of Medical ServicesThe Luftwaffe used trained Officials for medical ancillary services.

Snoopy Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Hello PaulI found this photo in a "Der Adler" magazine. It shows from the left, Sanit?tsinspekteurs der Luftwaffe Generalarzt Dr. Neum?ller, and Oberst?rzten Dr. S?nbrich and Dr. Martius. The photo was taken at a consert. Is there any special insignia, or waffenfarbe, that would show that the general belonged to the medical branch?Snoopy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul R Posted February 9, 2008 Author Share Posted February 9, 2008 That is one great photo. Thank you for sharing. The only way to Identify a medical General would be the medical insignia cypher on the shoulder boards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 (edited) Two more photos, from "Der Adler". I tried to make close ups of the most interesting bits of the pictures. Both photos shows the sanit?ter armband in use. I hope they are of interest. Snoopy Edited February 10, 2008 by Snoopy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
