Mystery HJ (?) shoulderboards

[Hilton]

Hope that someone can shear some light on what these are. Could it be HJ, Landjahr, Landdienst ?

Nothing to do with Landienst, Landjahr. I don't think these are H.J. at all but something else, possibly not even German but Swiss or something.

They belonged to a Norwegian youth (member of the Norwegian collaboration formation NSUF) that participated in "Germansk Landtjeneste" (Germanische Landdienst). They are not Norwegian, so I guess that either he used them in Germany, or he saved them as a souvenir given ti him by some other participant.

As I suspected not German or H.J.. I've never seen any like this in my time of collecting or studying. I'm not familiar with items from Norway. In H.J. rank structure a single oak leave signifies a Bann Fuhrer level rank held by an adult. A Landienst connection is possible, I would like to see a period photo or documentation or a regulation of some sort to be certain.

So would I Darin :-) Thank you for your input.
