Hi Guys,
Need a bit of help from some of you educated collectors. I have recently purchased (still on route) a set of Panzer collar tabs which are the usual black backing cloth with aluminium death heads however the waffenfarbe is red and not pink. Would I be correct in assuming that these may be from a Sturmgeschutz guy rather than a panzer man.
Apparently the chap who was the original owner was in the Grossdeutschland Division so I am wondering if he was in fact from the GD Sturmgeschutz Abt or am I completly wrong here. I am a little confused as I thought Stug men who had totenkopf collar tabs wore them with green backcloth and red waffenfarbe and not black backing cloth. Any help will be appreciated thanks.
