Geschwader "Horst Wessel" Cuff Title

[TWS]

This is a new arrival. Decided to go ahead and get an unmounted example due to my increased interest in the unit since acquiring a Fliegerbluse owned by one of the commanders, Oberstleutnant Karl Boehm-Tettelbach. This example is in pretty much mint condition and shows no sign of having been sewn to a uniform.

Hmmm... just recently started having a problem on the forum. It is changing the orientation of photos despite my making sure the photos were oriented correctly prior to upload. This happened a couple weeks ago to me for the first time and now it is happening again with this post. Never had problems in the past. If my phone orientated a photo incorrectly, I corrected the orientation, saved, and then uploaded here and had no problems. Uploaded these same photos on a different forum and the correct orientation was preserved.

That a nice example Todd.

Bugger... I tried to put your pic the right way 'round... that didn't work

I think I’ve got it!
Slightly cropping every image always seems to work. I just do it as a habit for anything I intend to post.

Very nice title, by the way, Todd!

Thanks Bob! (And Bob L.)

Every photo is resized and cropped before I post (and orientation is corrected if needed). Otherwise, the file size would be too large or too much extraneous background surrounding the subject of the photo. Not sure what's going on.

Thank-you sir. Eh, we've got time before the MAX, right?

Hi Todd, had a similar issue recently but had already posted the same pics on another forum. Copied those (from the other forum) and pasted into this forum and it worked OK. Something else to try, rotate pics 'incorrectly' by 90 degrees and try posting then? Anyway, vey nice band and a fascinating unit!

Regards, Paul

Thank-you Paul.

Also nice to know I'm not alone with the photo posting problem. It hasn't happened in the past. It's a new phenomenon to me. I posted the exact same photos on a different forum and they posted correctly, so I'm scratching my head. I'll try your suggestion next time.

Since we're showing ours off...

Do you gents know if the cheesecloth backing is a legitimate variant?
