Hello,
The first photo is of a Heer artillery Oberfeldwebel for the waffenrock, 2nd is a pre 1938 enlisted shoulder board for an unteroffizier in Sanitaetes abteilung 7, the 3rd is a Luftwaffe shoulder board for flak regiment 13.
The second photo is a pair of nice pre 1938 enlisted shoulder boards for sanitaets abteilung 17. All nice originals.

1st Model Felbluse Shoulder Straps
The pointed straps are 1st Model Feldbluse shoulder straps. The first ones of these are made of field grey wool on top and later they were replaced the ones with the tops made of the dark green "badge cloth" like the ones that you have. These straps were for the field blouse only and not worn on overcoats if my understanding is correct. They were replaced by the M-36 shoulder straps, made of dark green badge cloth and with rounded ends.Last edited by Schulterklappen; 07-17-2016, 08:15 PM.

According to Angolia's book you are correct about the date. I had always identified them by the tunic models, M36, M40, M44 and the 1st Model Feldbluse straps.
