Hi everyone,
I'm just arrived in your forum.....and I think it's really a good one.....go on like that...

I'd have two questions about these pink-piped NCO visor.....
1)I've read that in engineering corps were considered all officiers and they wear the classic officer peaked cap ,so there weren't NCO pink piped visors.
2) I've read that in january 43, new field Luftwaffe Divisions were settled,
and the pink farbe was for antitank or divisional service, so in this case there were NCO pink piped caps........
Pls I need ypur help in understanding something more about these really rare visors, ..........
Thank you very much
Regards
Giorgio

Hi all,

I am interested in who wore the pink piping too, and have a vested interest as well, as I also have one with this piping. I believe it is Engineering, as I think there would have had to have been Engineer qualified NCO's who were not commissisoned officers, but still have the qualifications to be in the Corps, and possibly waiting to get their commissions....

(and that is only a theory of mine, can't back it up with any hard facts)....
