The attractive - and I deem just moderately used and/or worn! - WH (Heeres) officers'-type pair is piped in the typical darker-green- (ie. 'grüner'-) coloured branchcolour: as such, the pair was intended for usage by an officer holding the rank of a: 'Hauptmann des Gebirgsjäger Regiments 138' (ie. army captain who served within the mountain-troops regiment, numbered: '138'. The attractive pair was most certainly issued and worn as such but comes, nevertheless, in an overall nicely preserved and/or untouched, condition. The shoulderboards - which are constructed from the darker-green- (ie. 'grüner'-) coloured, 'smooth-type' (ie. moleskin-like-) wool - come in an excellent condition overall and will be hard to be upgraded (the pair is fully matching as can be seen on the pictures). The somewhat 'sub-dued' appearance of the 'upperdecks' is fully present and/or preserved (something that is to be expected for a 'Heeres'-related shoulderboard-pair). The boards are just a tiny bit 'tarnished' by normal age and/or storage for decades and do show some age, wear and staining (as can be seen on the pictures). The neat boards - which measure approximately 11 cms. in length each - show a matching pair of the neat (golden-toned, 'Buntmetall'-based- and/or smaller-sized) '1'-, '3' and/or: '8'-numerals ie. cyphers (or: 'Ziffern') and four (identical and bright-golden-toned) pips period-attached denoting the officers'-rank ie. function of a: 'Hauptmann des Gebirgsjäger Regiments 138'. The straps never had any tongues attached and were clearly intended and used as a pair of the 'sew-in'-pattern (as can be seen on the pictures). This pair originated from an older shoulderstrap ie. board-collection that I acquired for the web-site some time ago. Simply an attractive, neatly 'cyphered' and/or 'Heeres'-related officers'-type shoulderboard-pair that was intended for usage by a: 'Hauptmann des Gebirgsjäger Regiments 138'!
