The straps and other insignias was posted there, a senior collector wanted better pics to judge about originality of the "A"s and also about the straps itselfs (see the one to the right; is the piping ok?) plus is it ok with "A"s on?. These was what i wanted to find out with this thread (guess the pair to the left is ok, but dont know the waffenfarbe... . T.

They appear to be Wein Rote which could be for veterinary (but they would have cyphers on the straps) or rocket/smoke artillery troops.
