Description
Add a piece of authentic Cold War military history to your surplus shelves with these original East German (NVA) Junior Officer shoulder boards. Issued for wear on the service tunic, this matched pair features the four-strand braided silver bullion construction characteristic of Lieutenant-grade ranks in the Nationale Volksarmee, mounted on a dark green wool backing with contrasting bright green piping that identifies the wearer's branch of service.
These boards are new old stock — never issued, never worn — making them ideal for collectors, reenactors, militaria dealers, and uniform restorers who need crisp, undamaged insignia. They also have strong appeal for film and theater wardrobe departments and for fashion-minded surplus shoppers who appreciate the unmistakable look of vintage European military dress.
