A lot of leather pieces

I found this leather in Germany, near the Hürtgenwald. Some gloves, pieces of belts and a US toolthing. On the belt you can see some inscriptions. Does anyone know what these mean? It also says 'LBA' wich I think stands for 'Luftwaffe Bekleidungsamt' but i'm not sure.

U.S. WW1 LeBreve, Paris Pilot Wings and WW1 Bomber Wings

Hello All,

I've noticed the WW1 LeBreve, Paris Pilot Wings all over the internet.

Is LeBreve's quality of fit and finish so crude??

Attached photos of two sets of wings on a "high-end" dealer's site. I know absolutely nothing about these wings. So I'm here to to learn.

The LeBreve wings don't appear anything like the ones I've seen elsewhere - which are readily recognizable as fakes.

The Bomber wings are less clear-cut. I've searched high and low, and some seem better finished while others appear about the same. There is a brass plate beneath the cloth covering.

Best Regards

HJ buckle from JFS with leather tongue

This is the surprise I mentioned earlier. It came with a lot of HJ/DJ stuff from Austria and need a bit of a clean. It is the first buckle with leather tongue I see, but maybe others have some in their collection.
The buckle appears to be marked but it needs a clean before reading. All I can see is a 4

Rare Jagdgeschwader Molders Cuff Title - Dated 1940

Hello All,

I think this example of the JG Molders cuff title just might be a winner...

Well it's either genuine or an elaborate hoax. The chance of it being authentic Third Reich era is 1:2 = 50% chance of it being real.

Not my area of expertise, so I defer it to those that know more about it...

Here's the specifics:

Battle of Britain dated and in superb overall condition, showing evidence of once being on a tunic. It is approximately 47cm in length with silver bullion flatwire title and goldish bullion edging. It is made of wool, I believe and has a cotton twill liner. It is Serial numbered 1289; dated 1940 and, has a manufacturers stamp inside which is indistinct. I think it says Nurembourg.

Best Regards

Need help! Can anyone tell me more about this visor??

Hi all!

I bought this visor with a lot of 4 tunics recently purchased and am hoping some of you can tell me some facts about it, and give me some feedback regarding condition, authenticity, rank, etc. I know its Luftwaffe, but beyond that I'm not sure.

Thanks!
