flakhelfer

Here I have a very nice photo of a Flakhelfer with triangle and 2 very interesting badges. Before I sell his great photo, I want to share it with you.

There were a number of Marine Flak emplacements for instance in Kiel and Heligoland staffed by Marine HJ. Did their uniforms differ from the Luftwaffe grey/blue uniform cut into the HJ style ? Nick

Here's that photo I asked about in the specialist insignia section. Thought I'd scan it properly now that I have it. Perhaps unremarkable to some, but a cool little photo if you ask me. And only 2 euro.

Just got this on Ebay. Was wondering about the little "wing" badge. What is the deal with those? Can anyone tell me guidelines for wear or some such? Thankyou guys PB WK2 Foto HJ Junge Flakhelfer Passfoto Portrait Zivil bei eBay.de: 1918-1945 (endet 30.10.09 06:22:21 MEZ)

I was studying some period pics from book today and I noticed a curious thing: there are some example of hitler jugend kids serving in Flak (still with black tunic) or FH with flieger tunics wearing the leader 's lanyard although they have no rank at all (no pips or litzen). The lanyard appears...

Dear friends, about "Luftwaffenhelfer" one finds on occasion material (documents, fotos, effects) but documents about "Marinehelfer" I have seen very seldom. Marinehelfer became exact like "LwH" used "Flakhelfer". Does somebody still own material "marinehelfer" ? greeting atze

what is your opinion on these scholderboars i just bought for 44€/each and secondary: witch group/ bann do they belong to? and what do the 2 red strings mean?

Okay, I'm not so good with these. This one came from WAF and was priced pretty good so I took a shot. Opinions are welcome.

HJ Flakhelfer set for a Rottenfuhrer. Just arrived today. :001_cool:

This is on waf at the moment looks an nice little group , listed in the picture section ...

I have a question wich is bugging me for some while now.We all know that the HJ flakhelfer sometimes were awarded with the LW flakbadge.But what i am wondering is were there HJ awarded with any of the Heer badges such as the Infantry assault badge or the general assault badge ofcourse they were...

I will post here the pics I have in my collection. I think it's better to group them under a single thread. I start today with a set of Flakhelfer portraits. It is interesting that both pictures show the same tunic, but in one there's the eagle and in the other not.

I will start with the most famous FlakHelfer... then one of my favourite actors, Hardy Krüger. He was drafted in HJ at 13 and then fought against the american with the 38 Waffen SS Div Nibelungen on the Oder Front. The picture is from one of his movies.

Hi Guys, I have owned this one for many years now. Cheers, Ade.
