    Breast Eagles

    Hello,

    What kind of breast eagles are these? Officers, NCO? Early, mid, late war?

    My own research says it is a late-war Officers BeVo eagle. I am right?

    Thanks,
    Mike

    No you are not right!
    These are very nice early EM/NCO eagles for the Waffenrock!

      I found some pictures, after I posted here, of that exact style eagle on a Panzer Feldjacke. The photos are on pages 46-47 of the book "Army Panzer Uniforms in Colour Photgraphs." The Hauptmann in the Sturmartillerie had chosen to upgrade his breast eagle with one from a dress uniform.

      Thanks for the info!

        Greetings All,

        These are 2nd pattern enlisted flatwire eagles for the waffenrock. Most likely came out around 1936. The 2nd pattern breast eagle showed up around this time. They were also used on enlisted walking out uniforms, NCO Tunics and Officer tunics.
