    As far I know, Heer Beamte NCO boards had the dark green waffenfarbe and a layer of nebenfarbe in the middle.

      Yes I don’t have the exact date and order number however late war - 1944 they went to regular boards with a dark green Waffenfarbe and the HV device. I have seen sets, however I do not own a set my self. Here is s collage of photo's showing the transition over to them note the right hand photo. It's all the same person and the photo's are dated on the back. Going from Wiemar era boards to the Beamte style and finally to regular patteren NCO boards. He is a Beamte a. K.

          Neat late War photos on the right for HV. Are you sure that is the same guy? The man on the left looks like it might be his son and appears larger in the chest and about 20 years younger.

            ....

            These photos had been run here before somewhere -- they show loss of weight and the strain and aging the war caused. It has always been interesting to see how men changed over just a few years as the war took its toll.

              That is pretty amazing, must have been subjected to a lot of paperwork. The man on the left appears to be wearing infantry litzen.

                I have them posted near the end of this thread:

                Here is a scan of the reverse of the photo's, I bought them as a group. You are correct in that he was in the Infantry in 1939....must have had a trade that was needed during the war. His collar tabs are for the Medium/Elevated careers so he could have been an Officer Asspirant.

                  Quite a change. I wonder if he had an illness that took him out of active duty. He looks drastically different. Cancer etc. could do that I guess.

                    It's not cancer, it's the stress of war. Look at the photo album of a guy that made it all the way through - fat and happy in 1939 and grizled and bony in 1945. It ages you more than being President.
