Those are gems, especially the Lusftschutzpolizei NCO visor--once again, thanks to you and your colleague for posting!

I echo Chris' comments. I rather like the field caps.

Hello all,

Anyone have any good period pics to share with officer uniforms in wear?

here's one I just picked up.

Wm, that is a beauty--if my hats weren't taking up all the room in the mancave, I would buy that in a heartbeat!

going to keep it in my collection and display it on my website with my other items:

Wehrmacht-Militaria.com/museum

I had a visor which I showed you but it was just too minty to put with the jacket so I did sell that. I'll do a proper photo shoot once I can find a salty cap to put with the uniform.

thank you!!

Wm--here is a link to RLB headgear in wear:

would guess my rank requires a leader dagger for the display. I guess I should also keep my eyes open for a salty brocade belt and maybe even someday lucky enough to find the aiguillette but that looks like a scarce and unique pattern.

I see essentially the same uniform being worn with a black double claw belt and buckle and cross strap setup which probably would be easier to source for the display.

thank you for the link, these photos are wonderful!

interesting to note is the use of only one shoulder board (in the photos of the individuals wearing a dress cord)
