I compliment you on a most excellent presentation, Bill.

[luftguy]

Thanks! I am still missing the Hauptstabsingineur (4-blade prop, full wreath), Chefingenieur (2-blade prop in gold) and Leitender Checfingenieur (3-blade prop in gold)

Hauptingenieur (Reserves) boards

Bill,

I'm quite sure these boards are not Corps of Engineers. The are actually Obermeister (senior admin NCO grade) for Photographic, Artisian, Cartographic or Lithographic Services. Quite a scarce set of boards.

Thank you Garth,

It is good to see you here!

What tabs would go with this pair of boards?

Bill, Here is a picture of the tabs worn with your boards. Not to hard to find or to expensive.

Garth

[luftguy]

Thanks Garth,

The correct boards for the Hauptingenieur (Reserves) should look like the Ingenieur boards I posted. They should have 2 pips and a blue backing under the pink, correct?

Bill,

That is correct. The reserve boards are like your Ingenieur set but with a blue underlay. Good luck in finding them. The only reserve Engineer set of tabs I've ever seen are yours. There is two more branchs of Engineering you need to add to you shopping list: Wartime Engineer officers and Flying Leader Corps.

Garth

[luftguy]

Do you have examples, so I know what I am looking for? I the war type the pink tab with bottom wreath and no propeller?

Bill

[Garth Thompson]

These are the Wartime Officer tabs and a single Flying Leader Corps. Sorry about the picture size, better ones when I'm an adult member of the forum.
