Which belt goes to what buckle?

[D Funk]

Hi Forum, I have recently purchased a collection of several buckles, belts, and cross straps. All of the buckles have been removed from the belts and I am not sure what is going on. Can we start a library of photos where the picture includes both the belt and an identifying feature of the propper belt such as the clasp. Here are the belts I just purchased. Maybe we should pin this to the top for easy reference.

Belt 1 Light brown belt with grey catch marked G A on catch.

Belt 2 Light brown belt with gold wash or brass catch. Thinner leather and catch than belt #1.

D..Buckle 1 is a later belt hook. 1936 or so maybe later. Could be Police as Army used the same. This has remnants of green paint so my guess is Army.

Buckle 2 is WW1..much earlier.

Belt #3 Black leather with steel catch marked RZM M4/22 I am assuming this is for Hitler Youth as the tag is still on the leather.

Belt #4 There are three of these. All black leather. The first is marked on the clasp 1940 with a steel clasp, The second has some numbers under the tongue but I cant make sense of them w/ a steel clasp, the third is marked under the tongue Erik Schuler Hamburg 1938 w/ an aluminum clasp.

Belt #5 There are two of these, Both are black leather with a thin steel clasp pinned on to it. There are no tongues on the clasp end of the belt.

Lastly there are two crossstraps of different styles the first is black and has a nickle buckle stitched into each end. The bickle is smooth as are the clips. The second is black and has a pebbled steel buckle with silver paint over it. The other end of the strap has a D-ring sewn onto it and 2 adjustment slits and a keeper pin for adjustment. Can you help?

Here is an aluminum Heer buckle and what I believe could be the right belt with an aluminum catch with the same paint.

Reverse of an aluminum Heer buckle and propper belt w/ aluminum catch. Can you guys post some examples of other types of belt/buckle combinations that you believe to be correct?

Hitler Youth w/ propper belt for steel buckle. Any idea what photo #8 belts are? Can you put a Luft buckle on the same belt as a Heer buckle? Would an SA belt be brown? What kind of clasp on SA belts?
