Variation Luftwaffe Breast Eagle

[RobertE]

I only have a few variation EM breast eagles on Luftwaffe tunics, with most sporting the standard wartime embroidered type. If our veteran Luftwaffe collectors could help me determine if this eagle is original, I would appreciate it.

No problem for me either. Would love to see an inside view. Heck, would love to see the whole FB!

Looks nice

[RobertE]

I'll post some more complete views, and thanks for the confirmation. Some of these LW enlisted breast eagles are really something.

Early one!

[fw_190]

Diese Art der Vernähung wurde erst im Verlauf des Krieges verwendet. Der frühe Adler wurde nur bis 1938 angewendet und dann handvernäht und auf Fliegerblusen war bis 1940 kein Adler drauf.

a. 1940 als auf alle Fliegerblusen laut Anordnung der Adler zu tragen ist, wurde dieser Adler aus Altbestand Kammermässig vernäht.

b. Nachkrieg Vernähung, ohne Wissen über den Adler.

Sewn-in boards with wool piping, which I like.

Good quality wool, with a standard cotton liner.

WONDERFUL blouse Robert!

[RobertE]

Thanks John, and I know you know your blouses.

This belt came with it. More wear, but they were captured together (or at least from the same veteran).

That's a war time belt and buckle, but a nice set all the same Robert. Is there a tab on the buckle?

Thanks for the kind words.
John

[RobertE]

Yes John, I've got a nice mint brown aluminum belt set to display this with. The steel one does have the tab, below.
