Re: SS-Schütze boards and Totenkopf tab
This may be a novice question but were signals recon or what function did they carry out?

Re: SS-Schütze boards and Totenkopf tab
Both are good original items. The tab is the type found at Dachau and as Robert has correctly said, both are late war items. The shoulder straps often given the collector term "M44" type. As you can see, they are simplified from a construction point of view.
Signals troops were involved with wireless (radio) communications. "Recon" or more correctly Aufklärungs were a completly different branch of service and carried out recconnaisance work.
Cheers, Ade.
