Rare Original WWII German Luftwaffe GL Generalluftzeugmeister Embroidered Civilian Technician Triangle Patch

Offered is an original WWII German Luftwaffe Generalluftzeugmeister (GL) embroidered triangular insignia, a scarce wartime patch worn by civilian technical and engineering personnel attached to the Luftwaffe’s procurement, maintenance, and aircraft production organization.

This striking yellow triangular cloth insignia features:

• Displays honest age and light handling wear with no major damage.

The Generalluftzeugmeister (GL) organization was responsible for the research, production, procurement, inspection, repair, and logistical support of Luftwaffe aircraft and equipment.
