    Witch uniform to Witch war and qualification badge?

    Hi all.
    Can Someone Please help me in pointing out witch type of soldier got the different types of war and qualification badges?
    I know that the infantry got the silver IAB and that the Panzer grenadiers got the bronce iab. But whom got the pab’s, para, antipartisan, GAB, flak.

    The reason for My question is that i want to have one jacket for each award, but some of the jackets could have had more than one kind and so on. If you dont have all the info, anything Can help. I’ve tried the search option, but without any luck.

    Brg.

      You need to do the most basic of research here on the forum and look at a few pictures. Really very easy information to obtain. J

        Luft Flak = Luftwaffe 4 pocket tunic, flightblouse. Both best with red colored insignia

        Army Flak = any army and SS tunic

        Luftwaffe para badge = Luftwaffe 4 pocket tunic, flightblouse. Both best with yellow colored insignia. Waffen-SS tunic M43.

        Army para badge early = as above

        Army para badge, late = army M43 tunics ("Brandenburger")

              This forum is full of stuff, however, you could also just google exactly what your looking for badge by badge and see many great examples on top of the answers that some gave you on here.

              I don't know anything about the site in the link that I am providing, however, after a 20 sec search, I found an example. You may want to decide if you want Officer Uniforms, or NCO/EM Uniforms.

              For your "army" requirements, I have always like Waffenrocks. Get a nice waffenrock with a nice Belt, Buckle, and Visor and you will have a a classy display.

              For your Luftwaffe, do what others said.

              The area you want to collect is a minefield. Research and study what you want so you don't get burned. E-stand is a great start. Honestly, as a new collector, STAY AWAY FROM WSS.

              Best of luck.

                Artillery, sure. The other branches, might work, if you pretend they moved from artillery to another branch, of course they were allowed to wear their "old" awards in the new branch, too.

                Army para on army M43, yes, but must be the late zink type, which is a lot easier to find, and cheaper than the early war ones
                At that stage of war (1943) only the army special commande of the "Brandenburger" received that late zink army para badge.

                  Thanks to the both of you. I now see What has made a problem for me. That the soldiers moved to different branches. When i have googled and searched, i have not been awere of the fact that the different badges crossed the branches. This makes it a lot easier to understand. My next tunic will be an Artillery for a Flak badge

                  Thanks yet again!
