Talking Re: Does anybody know what's so special about these German Regiments?

Hi guys, Tik/ is partly correct. I just made a deal for shoulderboards to the listed regiments. And for the "Eastern Front guys" the above units spent most of or all of their carreers serving and fighting on the Eastern Front.

Im currently working on another deal that involves getting rank insignia from a well-known European Militaria dealer who bought these and other items from the deceased RKT's family. These boards are for the rank of Oberst in the 98th Gebirgejager Regiment of the 1st Gebirgejager Division.

More to come and images will follow after I get a new digital camera and a scanner.

And for PzJgr in particular, I am also hoping to "score" a nice pair of Panzerjager Hauptmann's boards. No unit cyphers are on these but what I do know is that these too had belonged to a Gent who served on the Eastern Front from the invasion of Russia to capitualtion of Germany.
