Collar tab. For who?

[Laurence Strong]

I have this collar tab that has a dark green base. Who would this be for?


Thanks
Larry

These may also be something else (narrow compared to most RH examples) but are the basic design for the pre 1927 officers pattern tabs to be used with the field/service tunic of RH officers. In 1927 the waffenfarbe was introduced with branch colored tabs for service tunic wear.

I had seen lots of these tabs. I think yor example is a infantery officer tap with dirty, dark middle stripe. It can also be an faded transport stripe.

I think they are RH, maybe for a small man. Tabs do come in different sizes of the same style (also boards). Insignia was made to fit the tunic size.
