    A very nice pair of shoulder straps Luftschiffer Batl 2

    Steve, nice stuff! The Major "set" I like! (y) ... very nice - this is the "W II" from the Inf.-Rgt. 116, so you need the "WR II" from the IR145 - right!? Thank you and best regrards, Jens

    A very nice pair of shoulder straps Luftschiffer Batl 2

    Steve, nice pair! I have a quite similar pair - probably also unworn. I suspect this type of shoulder boars are very late (from the end of the war). Best regards, Jens
