Which badges/medals might this LW-officer have worn ?

[Adrian]

Here's what I've got so far.
- EKII.
- DRL bronze.
- ROAG cloth version.
- And the BWB.
I'm thinking of upgrading the EKII to an EKI and the BWB to a SWB.
Still need an Afrika cuff title, metal ROAG, and a bombers clasp to complete the grouping.
Later on maybe a visor cap and insignia.

Looking good so far. If you upgrade to an EK1 you can still keep the EK2 on display or maybe get a ribbon bar to represent it. I would go for a ROAG badge in metal for a better visual effect than the cloth badge. While practical and certainly worth their place in collections, they just don't do it for me in a display such as this but that is only my thought of course and you can decide for yourself!

Thanks Adrian.
I will probably keep the cloth ROAG in the display, even after I have gotten a metal version. I'm thinking of adding a cloth breast eagle too.
Unfortunately the metal ROAG, Afrika cuff title and bombers clasp are so expensive that it will probably be a while, before I can include those, to my display

Here are the latest additions.
The ROAG arrived today and what a beauty

I have just been told that the breast eagle is a well known "Hump/hunch backed fake "

A popular term for fakes it seems, there is a hump backed fake helmet chinstrap also. Nice group mate, I really like the impression. Considering my collecting focus I would be wrong not to suggest a nice early Luft M35 helmet

The latest additions...
DRL-badge for the wardisabled and Eagle/wreath for Luftwaffe NCO...

Thanks Ralph.
It's a nice one, but I think I'll wait and see. Since I'm going to a militaria show next weekend.

Could a luftwaffe bootknife be an option ?

That's fine, just don't get caught with another humpback!

I think I have learned my lesson on the humpbacks
Maybe I should look for a Luftwaffe bootknife in the near future.... I love those...
But I think my main objective is some hangers, to complete the dagger....
