East German NVA Enlisted Men's Infantry Collar Tabs Pair (White Piping)
Complete your Cold War uniform build or reenactment setup with a matched pair of East German Army (NVA) Enlisted Men's Infantry Collar Tabs (Kragenspiegel). Made to exacting historical specifications, these collar tabs feature the iconic Eastern Bloc branch markers worn on the service tunics (Dienstuniform) of Nationale Volksarmee infantrymen, motorized riflemen, and mechanized troops.
Branch Symbolism & Construction Details
Each collar tab features the signature East German twin Litzen bars embroidered directly onto a stone-grey wool field. The outer edge is finished with a clean black border and framed by bright white Waffenfarbe piping, historically identifying the wearer as belonging to the Infantry / Motorized Infantry (Mot.-Schützen) branch of the NVA Landstreitkräfte.
New Manufacture to Original Specifications
Newly produced to match original GDR patterns, these insignia pieces provide a crisp, unworn look ideal for active field reenactments, film production wardrobes, and restoring vintage Strichtarn or service tunics without degrading rare historical artifacts.
