Luft Flak/Flight/FJ Straps

[Willi Z.]

Never really bothered with Flak straps before, but thought these are kinda unique in regards to how different each matched set is. Note the color variation of the rayon and the wool. And referring to a much earlier discussion, the various lengths are obvious.

Ok

But mine don't look like yours.......

Now that Willi and John are here ...

Can you make out the cypher on these boards? I think it is for the Kraftfahrschule -- but want to confirm. The photo is from a grouping and the guy was an instructor.

[Willi Z.]

Ah heck, I hate playing poker. Mike, you just had to take us from red to golden yellow.

Nice Flak straps!

[Willi Z.]

Mike, I can't make out that cypher.

Since we are discussing straps, I meant to post these the other week after I picked them up. These shirt strap singles all came from the same veteran and are all different and rather crude. I wanted to show how the late-war rayon piping got pretty rough too.

Nice grooping there guys . Let me know if those straps are taking up too much wall space, I'll be glad to haul them away for you (no charge even) .


Nice Tropical straps. Steve

I knew someone was hoarding out there. Very nice Willi.

Now we will really suck John into this thread. Shirt straps and tunic straps.....aluminum pips and zinc pips.

Mike

Those are RLM cyphers

[Dave Suter]

I agree with Gene - RLM. The last letter is clearly not an 'S', and there are three intwined letters.

Willi - since you have 3 of those tropical straps ( ) and I have zero ( )....
