That´s the so-called "Bayernborte = bavarian braid). I also can read 1.M.G.K. on the shield and a shoulder strap seems to be a 7. So we have: 1st MG-comp. of the bavarian a) Inf,Rgt.7 b) Res.Rgt.7 c) Ldw.Rgt.7 Edited November 19, 2016 by The Prussian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chip Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 I agree with Andy. It is nothing official. It's not a farrier's patch (horse shoe) or a Richtkanonier patch (bursting bomb). Chip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MG1918 Posted July 14, 2017 Author Share Posted July 14, 2017 Moderator is looking at how to remove all these Photobucket 'entries'. Once cleaned I will get back to re-energising MG08 & MG08/15 complimenting 'grips of death'. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chip Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 The tunics in post #32 look like those of one of the Maschinengewehr Abteilung. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccj Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Hey Chip, doesn’t it appear the cuffs and collars are darker green with the trim seen on JzP troop uniforms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bayern Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Hello ; The prussian regiments of JzP number 8 to 13 dont weared Kurassier helms except the officers . they used Dragoner helms and Dragoner boots. So the machine gunners portrayed must be JzP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bayern Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 The six men with a MG wears a lower cockade on their cap bands which appears to be bavarian of one of the models in use ,that is white with a light blue center . but they not wear the bavarian collar borte .
