Luftwaffe Rings

[Micdrow]

Here are some rings that were worn by Luftwaffe pilots that for some reason I find interesting. Most of the pictures Ive found through the years on Ebay.

Enjoy

Some more items people may find interesting

Those are cool, never seen them before.

Micdrow, I'm assuming that these are pics of rings - you don't actually own these? The individual Jagdgeschwader rings are fascinating!

Correct I dont own any of them, Ive saved the pictures over the years of finding them on ebay.

I just found this ring on ebay today. Its starting bid is for $100, most of them go for a couple of hundred dollars. Ive seen some of the more common ones go for as little as $20. Depends on the rariety and the materials its made from. I beleive the one below could be for I/St.G. 1

Ive mainly done luftwaffe rings though you can find others.

1. German mountain troop ring
2. Campaign and panzer rings

Nice stuff here Micdrow.I wonder if all JGs had their own rings for crews.

I have no idea Wurger, as far as I know this is the largest collection of luftwaffe ring pictures around in any format. I would love to find out more but have had no luck so far. Its kind of a side project I work on from time to time.

To be honest I didn't think people would be to interested in this subject, here are some more pictures that I have on Luftwaffe rings.

1. Luftwaffe pilot observer ring
2. Luftwaffe ground personel ring
3. Luftwaffe Navigator ring
4. Last ones are unknown at this time.

I think we would have to ask about it some Luftwaffe eksperten who are still alive.
But taking the other background rings into consideration it is possible.

Maybe a question that Erich could ask one of his friends of the Luftwaffe, I unfortuently dont know any of them.

[Wurger]

Also me but Erich can help.
