Superb - fully matching and rarely seen! - pair of mid-war-period- (ie. truly 'DAK'- or: 'Deutsches Afrika Korps'-related) WH (Heeres) NCO-type, 'tropical'-styled shoulderstraps as intended for an: 'Unteroffizier der Nachschub-Truppen'

This is a truly very attractive - fully matching and very rarely seen - pair of (I deem mid-war period- ie. 'DAK'- or: 'Deutsches Afrika Korps'-related-) WH (Heeres) NCO-type, 'tropical'-style shoulderstraps as piped in the neat light-blue (ie. 'kornblumenblauer'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for - and most certainly worn by! - an: 'Unteroffizier der Nachschub-Truppen' (or: junior-sergeant and presumably drive who served within an army transport-unit) and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The shoulderstraps - which are as stated above fully matching in execution and that do show some obvious fading, stains and/or wear - measure approximately 11,2 cms. in length each. Both straps have the typical brownish-green- (ie. tropical) coloured and/or linnen-based 'upperdecks' (and field-grey-coloured and/or woolen 'backings' as to be expected for mid-war-period pair) and have the neat and desirable light-blue (ie. 'kornblumenblauer'-) coloured and/or 'silk-like'-type piping attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The pair comes naturally mounted onto its functional tongues and comes as most certainly worn and/or stored as such for decades. The neat and desirable pair was always together and was most certainly worn as such. The pair is just a tiny bit dirty ie. stained and shows the clear evidence of having been moderately used and/or worn (it has clearly been somewhat faded due to obvious sunlight). The straps show the silverish-toned (ie. 'standard-issue'-pattern) NCO-braid attached, denoting the NCOs-rank of: 'Unteroffizier' (ie. junior-sergeant). Simply a very attractive - and with certainty very desirable! - fully 'text-book', NCO-type tropical shoulderstrap-pair that belonged to an: 'Unteroffizier der Nachschub-Truppen'. It should be noted that all (genuine!) tropical- ie. 'DAK'-related-shoulderstraps are very hard to encounter and can easily be graded 'very rare': most of the pairs offered today are regrettably copies. I am aware of the fact that they are highly priced something that is according to their unmistaken rarity and/or desirability!
