Description
These original East German (NVA) Navy shoulder boards are an authentic piece of Cold War-era military surplus, issued to Fähnrich — the senior non-commissioned officer / officer candidate rank within the Volksmarine. Finished in deep navy blue wool with twin silver bullion stripes running the length of the board, they carry the unmistakable look of period East German naval dress uniform.
Sold as a matched pair in new, unissued condition, these boards are a strong stocking choice for any retailer serving militaria collectors, reenactors, surplus enthusiasts, and costume or theatrical buyers. Cold War and DDR-era pieces continue to draw steady interest, and clean, never-worn examples like these are increasingly difficult to source.
