Attractive - albeit regrettably single but scarcely found! - WH (KM) NCO-type shoulderboard as was intended for a medium-ranked, administrative-official (ie. NCO) having the rank of: 'Oberfeldwebel' (ie.: 'Beambter des mittleren Dienstes')

The neat - albeit regrettably single albeit nevertheless scarcely found! - WH (Kriegsmarine) related shoulderboard - which was intended for usage by a medium-ranked NCO having the comparable rank of: 'Oberfeldwebel' (or: sergeant first-class) - is constructed from the specific, darker-blue-coloured- and/or: smooth-like- (ie. moleskin-type-) wool and does have the (typical) bluish- and/or: silver-coloured (twisted) 'upperdeck' as per regulation (as can be seen on the pictures). The board - which only shows moderate wear - has two (identical- and or aluminium-based) pips, a little triangular-shaped so-called: 'Laufbahn-Abzeichen' and equally-styled naval-type eagle-device period-attached denoting the NCOs rank of: 'Beambter des mittleren Dienstes im Oberfeldwebels-Rang'. The board also shows the darker-blue- (ie. 'blauer'-) coloured 'Zwischenfarbe' (or: secondary branchcolour) attached, denoting the soldiers- (ie. NCOs) specific function- and/or tasking. The board never had a tongue attached and was intended to be used as a board of the 'sew-in'-pattern and does show some truly minimal age and/or staining caused by fair wear and decades of storage). It should be noted that these attractive Kriegsmarine-related, NCO-type shoulderboards as were intended for medium-ranked administrative-officials ie. 'Beambter des mittleren Dienstes im Oberfeldwebelsrang' can easily be graded: 'quite scarce'. Too bad that it is only a single specimen!
