    Yet more fantatstic pictures Bill!

    Do this man's collar tabs appear as dark in the original picture as they do here? What do you think they are, medical or signals perhaps?

      Hello,
      hard to tell from the small picture, but there might as well not be any collar tab on the Fliegerbluse.
      Often enough they were taken off and the wings applied directly to the collar in order not to give the enemy a prominent mark to aim at. Literally "Spiegel aufsitzend" for those of you who speak German.

      best regards,
      Volker

        Ben,

        I believe I see dark red tabs on his collar which would make him flak. - Bill

        Here is a closer scan of the photo!

          Hi Bill,

          although I haven't seen the close up yet I always find it great to see different collar tabs in use with the FJ than the obvious yellow ones.
          Thanks!

            Ben,

            I agree and I have no doubts in my mind that different collar tabs were worn. - Bill

            Here are a few more recent pickups!

                        Hello,

                        I hope you have not used this photo anywhere else! The photo just happens to be mine and if you look at #17 of this thread you will see where I posted it. Please have the courtesy to ask for permission before you post it either here on this forum or anywhere else. Regards - Bill

                          Here is another recent pickup. A Decorated Sani (Medic) wearing an EK1, LWGAB, FJ Badge and what appears to be dark blue collar waffenfarbe and specialty arm badge of the Medical Branch.

                              Hi Neil,

                              Thanks for your comments. I'm attaching a few more recent arrivals. This FJ appears to be wearing Flak collar tabs and breast ribbon for Italian/German Afrika campaign Medal, Black Wound Badge and FJ Badge. Bill
