Hi. Can anyone help me identify the uniform in this photo? I'm particularly interested in the insignia on the hat.

Thanks.

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

Can you get a bigger image? Can't quite see it.

That wasn't an improvement.

In any case, it could be a uniform for an airline, civilian. I've seen the broad upward lifting leaves on an airline but not the "wings"? going across the middle.

I saw this on the news last night. Some politician had used it in a political add. Think they said it was German icon

Priceless.....

It's not WWII luftwaffe, the dead giveaway on that is no swastika.

It is the emblem for the German icon

Luftwaffe or air force.

I think a Luftwaffe officer would al least insist on hanging it on the bead post. Now the rest of the uniform that might be another story.
