Question SS collar tab

Guys,

I would like your thoughts on this collar tab.

The reason I question it is because its construction is one that I am not use to seeing for an EM/NCO.

Regards,

Ty

My stolen collection

Here are some photos taken 4 years ago when I was 14 years old. I have been collecting since I was a little boy ( 7 years old). I saved all my money and worked very hard to get money to buy militaria. I was very interested in the history of WW2 and talked to lots of war vets, and they often had stuff from the war lying around that I could have for my collection. And that was better than Christmas for me! I also read books about ww2.
But when I was about 17 years old, I came back from vacation that summer and I found that 90% of my collection was stolen. The burglars had taken most of my stuff, and what they didn`t take with them they broke or left in the trail with militaria left along the road as they were in a hurry. Some of the stuff that was stolen was:
11 - Mauser 98k
3 - Lugers p08
4 - Full infantryman`s Equipment ( 2- Tornister backpack and 2 - assault pack)
+ lots and lots of field equipment!
8 original German helmets (including 1 single decal (95%) kriegsmarine helmet that was given to me buy a German vet that served at a costal artillery defense base here in Norway.)
2 - replica German helmets.
Bayonets an knives, china, uniforms, Norwegian infantry mod. 1918 uniforms ... it just goes on and on...
The only things I was left with was my SS- muser and some home front stuff from my family`s ww2 actions against the Germans during the war (These things where in a different location)

I was so mad that I could and probably would have beat the robbers to death! I partly lost my interest for collecting ww2 militaria after that , but it has become a part of me, and I can't stop. I am back now after a year with no collecting. Last week I decided to start again. I just can`t believe that other people's stuff can`t be left alone! :mad:

Just before I went on vacation the summer my stuff was stolen, I had talked to a museum that was interested in some of my stuff, and would like it on display in their museum..

After the burglary I started slowly collecting German WW2 photos from Norway, and now I have about 1200 photos. Figured that photos wouldn't be as likely to get stolen, so now I have a nice little collection of photos :)
My photo collection can be seen here:
http://warrelics.eu/forum/photos-papers-propaganda-3-reich/leander-haslerud-s-photos-18523/

I started collecting seriously at 16, and that`s when I got most of the valuable stuff. But unfortunately I don`t have pictures of these items, I do not know why I didn't take pictures of them. :(

So anyway, here are some photos of the stuff I had when I was 13 -14 years old :):(

Unknown ribbon on my Grandfather’s mount?

I was wondering if someone could help identify this ribbon… I don’t think it is a US award at all. The ribbon is very strange, not symmetrical at all… Perhaps an award from another Allied Nation? There is no medal to go with it… I decided to reproduce it to the best of my ability on the computer because the actual ribbon is very worn and the colors faded… Thanks for the help!
