Richie;
I forwarded the word you provided to a friend who is a native speaker. He says the word you provided is for buttonholes.
He doesn't know what the word for those tabs is though.
Not sure what to do now?

Richie was correct. We call them Pilitsi. But our spelling could be suspect.
Cheers, Ade.

Re: what are the "Litzen" on this uniform
So, if I am reading this correctly, these were just another means of designating (generally) rank, and branch, and were just for looks, not so much for any specific purpose, beyond the aforementioned.
Thanks all!
