Title Wehrmacht officer's chin cord (not Kriegsmarine)
Nationality German
Period 1938-45
Sold

This spun aluminium cord would have been used primarily for the caps of the Army, Waffen SS, Luftwaffe and Police on the peaked service cap which replaced the old Weimar type. In addition, it was also worn by state officials, Red Cross and Ostministerium, NSKK and HJ personnel, always indicative of officer status.

It measures approximately 30 cm and has seen very little use. The internal supports of both slides are of red plastic.

...acquiring this bayonet has completely changed my way of thinking on collecting bayonets. I have become extremely fond of the bayonet... Thanking you once again for the very professional way in which you handled the money [going to the wrong account] problem.
