(Schirmmützenkockade). A Luftwaffe Officer visor wreath and cockade constructed of machine-embroidered aluminum bullion wire with light-grey thread highlights, the centre presents a metal tri-colour cockade in aluminum and a red wool centre, on a black wool base, with black paper backer, measuring 121 mm (w) x 39 mm (h), and in better than very fine condition.
Footnote: Previously removed from a Third Reich political party podium flag. An Allied Soldier picked up this flag and added on German insignia, eventually sewing and attaching eighty-seven German Second War period embroidered and printed insignia, including twenty-five various shoulder boards, rank insignia, collar patches, breast eagles, medal ribbons, Naval trade badges, and cap insignia, all of which have now been removed.
