    Help with old BW straps

    Hello everyone,
    I bought a small box with old shoulder boards, straps and collar tabs of an
    ex General Staff officer of the BW. Among them were the ones on the pic.
    Now, I know what the pointed ones are, but what are the ones on the bottom?
    Two have a greenish and one a grayish shade.
    Every help is highly appreciated

    Incomplete (missing piping)? Custom made ? Or, if Bw, just for the rain coats worn in the 1960's - 1980's?
    Could we see a pic of the backs and what exactly are the pointed ones for?

    Regards

    Lars

      Another possibility... from what I've seen the GJ have no piping on their shoulder straps.

        Here's one.
        Stripped of gebirgsjager tabs en edelweiss badge.
        Also some rank device removed from the shoulder boards.
        It wasn't me who did that.

            Maybe the topic starter can provide a little more information or a picture of the strap's backs?
            Are these straps to sew on, or the removable ones with bottom loop (for coats)?

              Hi everybody,
              Sorry for not getting back sooner, I was away from home longer than I thought.
              Here are pics of the back of the straps.
              The pointed ones were used for the coat and the blue shirt. Once I had one of these early blue shirts that had buttons sewn to the shoulders to secure the early straps. Chevrons and pips were pinned directly through the fabric.
              But as I said, the rounded ones are unknown to me, and they look old too.
              Thanks for all of your help.
