Paul R Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 The only example I have is seen below... the green backing has been heavily ravished by moths, yet the face of the board is in very nice shape. The light blue secondary waffenfarbe was used by the Judicial Officials. IAW "Uniforms and Traditions of the German Army 1933-1945" Vol 2, by Angolia. pg 134Lets see yours!

Laurence Strong Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 (edited) Here's my latest for the Wehrmacht, it has the Brown Nebenfarbe. I would like to know what it signifies, in the Luft the brown is for Fire Protection. I will post more over the next few days.

Paul R Posted January 19, 2006 Author Share Posted January 19, 2006 It seems like Angolia lists his colors differently than we are used to seeing them.For example...Carmine is known commonly for General staff and Veterinarian. Well, he names the color Crimson.Weinrot is known commonly for Judicial Officers. He names the color Carmine.Angolia names the color seen on arty boards as "bright red". So, with that in mind, I matched the colors and come up with the possiblities of your set.BTW, your set is very nice! Those upper level sets are hard to come by!As far as a Artillery Measuring Service, you are correct! I missed it when making my last reply! Thank you for the correction. For some strange reason, he(Angolia) has a (?) next to this entry... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laurence Strong Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 (edited) The shoulder straps show the letters HV in white metal for non-officer officials, officials of the reserve (Lt - Major), officials with Generals rank. Yellow metal for active officials with the rank of Leutnant to Obrest. Hope this helps. Edited January 23, 2006 by Laurence Strong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
