    SS-Untersturmführer shoulder boards - piped in grey

    Hello everybody!
    I would need your knowledge about this pair of dove-grey piped Waffen-SS officer shoulder boards?
    The branch-colour is really dove-grey coloured and not stained white!
    I'm little confused about this branch colour, which branch or unit wore this dove-grey piping on SS boards?
    It is stated that this was used within units of the "SS Begleitkommando u. Stab RFSS"?
    Thank you in advance!
    Cheers

        The boards

        Dear Nick and/or Eisvogel,

        These are mine and I really thought at first that they were white-piped ones that got somewhat stained however after having 'lifted' the piping it showed a true dove-grey colour and NOT white...so they really have greyish piping!

        This is hard to describe on the web-site but it is really 'how it is'....they are NOT infanterie!

        Best regards,

        Coco
        Pls. have also a look at my web-site: www.hiscoll.com

          The boards look very similar to this soiled Infanterie board...

            OK gray it is!

            In the Heer that would be the right color for Propaganda troops...
            Did the Waffen SS also adopt that color for their KB manner? (Kriegsberichter)

            I thought the SS men in PK (Propaganda Kompanie attached) wore lemon yellow (= signal troops color)
