    Forestry Belt... state, DJ or army ?

    Special thanks to Billy Kramer for hooking me up !

    Belt comes Mr.Angolia's collection and was sold as State Forestry Belt.
    The forum forestry expert is saying that it is either Hunting association (DJ) or Army Forestry Service.
    Any feedback is appreciated !
    Thanks !

    Let me just say that I am not sure how one discerns a State Forestry belt from Wehrmacht Forestry Services belt or even Hunting Association for that matter. Both Forestry services wore the green felt belts so.....

      It is quite easy to discern State Forestry from Wehrmacht and DJ (Hunting) if You know the regulations.
      Sure, all wore green leather belts, but the buckles were different.
      Silver coloured two-claw buckles were worn by Army forestry and Hunting Association ( DJ) only. LW forestry had a similar pattern but in burnished metal.
      State had the state crests until 1938 and the eagle after this date.

        Thank you Stefany for your reply as always !

        I am curious why Angolia made a mistake like that and it was then repeated when the belt was resold dealer to dealer and then to me.
