I believe 'KG' are bomber units. This link may help: Kampfgeschwader 2

More than likely, nice buckle by the way!....

Nice buckle and it has everything but a name tag. A very early buckle. I don't recall ever seeing a 1934 marked tab so 35 must be the first year.

That is a beauty! Num Num Num!

KG is a bomber unit,the rest I can't work out maybe Ned can.

Do you mean member Big Ned ?

Here is an example I picked up last year. And most of these I've seen all seem to be dated 1935, and the maker stamp is a leather maker and not the maker of the buckle.
