Paul, sorry but could you explain to me what is strange with these tabs by being blue ? What should be the right color ?

I'm really not used to sonderfuhrer items !

Hi!

Thank you for the reply.

The know tabs of this configuration are for:

Dark Green- War Time Official and Specialist Leader

Yellow- Fire Fighting Official

Pink- Engineering War Time Official/Specialist Leader

These are the only three I have ever seen in a reference book.

Now... There are a few more that are apparently unreferenced that I have seen myself.

Wine Red

Blue

Black(in a friend's collection).

This goes to show that there are many unexplained areas of militaria still out there. I am still assuming that they are medical related, but I do not know for sure.

Regards

Thanks, that's clearer now. Effectively, it may be medical related, that seems logic. But I think there are many illogical things when we study History.

I agree! I would have thought that the yellow ones would have been flight related, only to find out that they were for the Fire Dept! Odd indeed!
