Introducing --- the Wehrmacht crusher that shouldn't exist...

[Richard P]

Well, I beg to differ with my esteemed colleagues, but my monitor clearly shows a distinct color usually associated with TSD. I've had a couple of transport crushers and it's not that. I've only had one medical crusher, but the colors hold for anything with waffenfarbe and that is a very distinct shade of blue.

Congratulations....now that you have every shade will you help some of those that are crusher deprived get a few?

I agree,TSD..Transport is more of a powder blue like these shoulder boards.

David48, I guess we'll never know for certain if this may even have belonged to a Transport officer. I obviously think it's TSD and I'd normally associate a lighter blue with Transport (as in the headgear below). I never encountered any Transport items with this shade of blue. Still, the main thing is it's original and that's what counts most.

As to the requested "group shots". I don't think these would do the caps justice. I have no problem sharing images and anyone can email me and I'll provide detailed shots...

Very nice...Looks like the eagle was machine sewn across the top.

Absolutely Glenn! I hope you can make out the machine stiching in this pic... Kurt

I agree TSD, as well. It's a very distinctive shade. You sure know how to find 'em, Kurt!

Kurt, after reexamining post #2 and #3 particularly the first photo in post #3,
I agree that it is late TSD.

What branch color is this Crusher?
