Heaps Of Shoulder Straps! Identification Please

[Erwin]

Hello

We have here a large haul of shoulder straps from an estate. Could some knowledgable people please help in identifying these? I'm not really a cloth and insignia man so any help would be appreciated. I've posted pictures of the fronts and backs and each pair are in there own post.

I'm hoping that there may be some interesting ones in this lot. So identify away. (If there is anything here that you need a closer look at please ask and i'll add a better picture)

What color is that center layer on the LW Admin 1st LT board?

[Darin S.]

The HJ is a post 1938 pattern Striefendienst for Bann 741 Schlettstadt from the Süd/Baden Gebiet.

[Erwin]

Thank you very much John G, John P, and Gefolgschaft. I wouldn't have a clue where to start with these; so your knowledge is much appreciated.

'6. Polz. NCO (if BLACK center & threadhighlites then SD)' is black so does that make it SD - Gestapo?

And, Paul R, the LW Admin 1st LT board is red.

Cheers Erwin.

3. Early 1920s Army 1st Lt. 9th Regt. but still ?

The first one isn't a cavalry board. It's definitly a Signals (Nachrichten Abteilung 17)

No.3 is a Royal Bavarian Oberleutnant of the KB Infantry Regiment No.9 before WWI.

Andreas
