Luftwaffe Weather Service Official's Shoulder Board

[Paul R]

Here is a Luftwaffe Weather Service(Meteorologist) shoulder board for a Wetterdeinstinspektor(Weather Service Oberleutnant equiv). It arrived in the mail today. I am very happy with it.

Nice one Paul. The piccie is a little dark, the nebenfarbe is light blue?

[Paul R]

The nebenfarbe is grey and the waffenfarbe is dark green. I was hoping the nebenfarbe was brown when I bought it, but I am still pretty happy with the board.

[Laurence Strong]

Still a rarer one. I was just looking in Schlicts/Angolias book and they state that there was also a Golden Yellow nebenfarbe. If I read it correctly it was for serving soldiers.

Psst I have a brown nebenfarbe one ;)

[Paul R]

I was reading about the golden yellow color, but I understood that as the regular Luftwaffe members wore the regular LW Golden Yellow WAFFENFARBE of the fliegertruppen.

I do know that the golden yellow nebenfarbe was worn for Meteorologists before 1939, after which it was changed to the "storm cloud" gray.

You do have a brown nebenfarbe? Do tell! Is it Dark or Light Brown.

[Laurence Strong]

I believe it's for a Brandmeister
