Markings in Luft Visor Sweatband

[Mike S]

I wondered if some of the Luft historians here could tell me about markings found inside a flight piped visor I own. It says ?Sch.Salzw.
1936

There is a Roman numeral 1 to the right of this which I assume is the clothing grade. There is also another small box with lettering near the edge of the leather below the other markings which is impossible to decipher. This is obviously a (flight?) school at Salzwedel. Any information would be appreciated. Thank you!

Sorry for the orientation, he's tired like me. The hat is a Robert Lubstein. How the inside of the sweatband got so dirty I have no idea.
