I have seen lots of DLV and droop tail Luftwaffe with unit markings. It is rarer to find second pattern aluminum buckled with markings. I could be wrong but I don't think I have seen a steel Luftwaffe with unit markings.
How does these look ?? Kirk ?? Take your pick... I have several more also...G-man

Did the Luftwaffe have NCO pilots? Most Luftwaffe officer would use a double claw belt.
Hey Kirby,
Open to your knowledge and others. I know the picture of the pilot with my buckle above is a Stuka Pilot from one of my albums. These pictures are from another pilot album below I have Hans Mirsberger with buckles in wear. Guess If I do the pilot mannequin full rig I want to make sure I do it proper with the appropriate belt and buckle. I may just scrap the belt and buckle on display as well. If I would go officer I would do a double claw. There is also a picture below of 6 german soldiers with some having pilot badges as well. I think there was Luftwaffe pilots below the rank of Feldwebel during ww2 but I could be wrong or mistaken. More so later war? I am not an expert here as you can probably tell.

Kirby here is a double claw option I considered for the pilots summer flight suit as well should I go officer. As I mentioned above I may simply leave the belt and buckle off the display. Some times they wore it in pictures and some times not.
