Hi Erich,
Thanks for your input. You're right about the plain tuch shoulderstraps wich were introduced in 1939. My problem though is still that they have to be worn by all the others? Who are all the others?
The shoulderboards described in II/2 are the second pattern shoulderboards with 'Waffenfarbe' underlay. They talk about Schulterstuck rather than Schulterklappen, and the description is clear enough. In fact the shoulderboard pictured at pag. 209 of Cloth Insignia with the two pips is a Wehrmannschaften shoulderboard.
Collar tabs for enlisted men and NCO were piped in yellow or white artificial silk, Sturmführer and above piped in silver or gold.
The unit designation is in flatstich instead of 'Körbelstickung'.
Best Laurens
