Pair of RAD (ie. 'Reichsarbeitsdienst') NCO-type shoulderstraps (being of the 3rd pattern as used in the period between 1942-45) as was intended for an: 'RAD-Hauptvormann' (comparable with an: 'Oberfeldwebel'-rank)

This is a neat - and/or fully matching and actually not that easily found! - pair of nicely preserved, RAD (ie. 'Reichsarbeitsdienst') NCO-type shoulderstraps (being of the third- and final pattern as was used in the period between 1942-45) as was specifically intended for usage by an: 'RAD-Hauptvormann' (being a rank that is comparable with an 'Oberfeldwebel'- ie. senior-sergeant-rank) and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. I deem clearly issued- and/or just moderately used-), condition. The neat schoulderstraps have the 'standard'-pattern, earthen-brown- (ie. greenish-) coloured- and/or woolen-based 'upperdecks' and do show the (typical) silver-coloured- and/or 'twisted-braid'-styled piping attached: moreover, do they show four (regular-styled, aluminium-based and/or matching) pips and two loops (ie. 'Laschen') period-atttached (which latter are executed in 'twisted-styled', black- and/or silver-toned 'braid' as can be noticed on the pictures). The straps measure approximately 10,8 cms. in length each and are of the 'regular-issued'- (ie. non-private-production-) type. The straps came mounted onto their period tongues and come in an overall nice, ie. fully 'text-book' condition. The pair shows - as stated above - just modeate age, wear and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a great occasion to acquire a desirable (and actually hard to find!) 'Reichsarbeitsdienst'-related, NCO-type shoulderstrap-pair that was specifically intended for usage by an: 'RAD- Hauptvormann'!
