Army General Staff and the second is a dress board for Army Motorcycle Recce or construction units or LW Signals with the later more likely.

Right and the collar tabs are faded. The second link is for flight boards.

Look at post #9. On my screen it is the same color.

Nice General Staff Colonel's set!!!

They could be Vet too if there were snakes later replaced with pips. If it shard to tell but many times when the pips are in the center this is what happened. Interests someone wrote "R" and "L" on them- Rechts-Links or Right-Left etc.

General staff it is then, i got them with general staff collar tabs from a german family, but didn't know they belonged together
