    Default Wondering if someone can cast their expert eye over the uniform in this pic

    Firstly let me apologise if I am posting this inappropriately and this is not the correct thread/forum. I was wondering if anyone could identify the uniform in the attatched pic. We have German relatives on the one side of my family tree, but unfortunately know very little about them & have few pictures of which this is one. I have tried to research this myself online, but have only succeeded in confusing myself completely

    Hi and welcome to the forum. From your picture the gentleman seems to be in the Luftwaffe, German Air Force.

    Hello,
    It could be also the Waffenfarbe from the Sanitätstruppe or even the Pionere...
    Thanks
