Just got these boards from Stug Brigade 280 which became well known during the Arnhem battles. All Stugs seen on the pictures taken during the battle in Arnhem and Oosterbeek belonged to 280.

No they are very artillery red but appear a bit pinkish on screen. It is my bad camera...

Hi all,
Is it possible Erik and Schulterklappen that I can get some nice high res photos of those shoulder boards to use in a future publication about Stug Bde 280. Full credit is given as I have always done in my previous books. Please email me at info@historiahouse.com. http://www.historiahouse.com/sturmgeschutz-brigade-280/
Thanks

Still look to be Panzer "deep Rosa" on my monitor. The middle board looks to be the later Panzer Salmon pink.Originally posted by Erik View Post
Try taking a picture along side some red artillery officer boards and lets see how that looks,
