thats the one ive shown

was this also normal for EM?

[airborne_steve]

Jurgen,

Sew-in shoulder straps for Jr. EM was vary rare and was, most likely not authorized. I have never seen a un-touched M36 that had Jr. EM boards sewn in.

Here's mine with loops - it has the early pointed boards with Oberfeldwebel pips on them.
