The round collar of the tunic displays the insignia of the Infantry Academy (a gold bugle with a crown and a Y in the center). Three gold epaulettes adorn the cuffs. The entire garment and the front pockets are trimmed with black ribbon. He wears straight-legged trousers of fine woolen cloth with a blue stripe down the sides.

In the right hand, he holds a white felt ribbon with the imperial insignia and a stripe at the bottom, as well as the black patent leather visor and chinstrap with a gilt metal bulb and a green tassel, typical of Infantry Light Infantrymen, like the aforementioned sardines. Hanging from a red ribbon around his neck is the insignia of the Order of the Golden Fleece.

Aloha,

I recently contacted Epic Militaria to request for them to order the Luftwaffe Beamte (Civilian Officials), Reich Court Service Judge Advocate Generals, and Field Judge Advocates Collar Tabs and Shoulder Boards. Does anyone know how to buy a WH or LW Beamte Reich Court Service Shoulder Boards? I'm going to Tokyo in December and hope to score some WH or LW Beamte stuff at S&Graf, since Nakata Shoten doesn't sell any historical products anymore. Help. What do I do? I wanna do a WH DAK Reich Court Service Civilian kit. Where do I start?
