    Default Heer Infanterie Oberfeldwebel's shoulder strap.

    This is a favourite strap from my collection. I like the subdued mouse grey NCO's tresse and the red cord loop which would have been used to denote the soldiers unit at perhaps Kompanie or Battl level.

    This is a good large sized strap that might have come from a greatcoat.

    Cheers, Ade.

    Hi Al, these coloured loops were a semi official thing. The button: I cannot recall now if it is marked or not? I will have to look. If it is I will add the info here.

    Cheers, Ade.

    I collect shoulderboards too-and yours certainly is a very nice one. I wish it's "brother" was with it.
