Just 2 days ago I got this great Teno insignia set in the mail : Teno collar tabs for Teno Officer-Scharfuehrer rank ,silver thread Teno Sleeve Eagle and Teno Old Fighter Chevron .

Here the 2 collar tabs .

...and their backsides . Note the various different hooks through the thick woven
sack like backing material .

Close-up of the right-hand collar tab.

...and the backside with the various hooks to hold the front numbers and the cross bar .

Here now the right-hand collar tab with the wheel and leaves.

...and it's backside , again 2 different hooks .

Here a close-up of the special piping and the ends tied up at the corner .

By-the-way ,the collar tabs measured 1 3/4 -inches wide by 2 3/8 - inched high . Here now the silver thread Teno Sleeve Eagle stitched to a thick black wool backing . The eagle piece measures 3 1/4 - inches across the top and is 2- inches high . The thread does not UV-light reflect !

Close-up of the eagle center .

Close-up of the wing end and it's thick black wool backing .

Here now the "Old Fighter Chevron " stitched to a thick black wool backing . Each chevron arm is 3-inches long .

Close-up of the V-center joint .

Close-up of the backside shows the stitching to the thick black wool backing ; it does not UV -light reflect ! I hope you liked these rather rare items ! Bernd .

GREAT FIND and very scarce. I am always on the lookout for teno items but those collars never seem to show up . great find

TN - LEFT Facing and RIGHT Facing Metal Insignia.

I found it quite fascinating that the TN Metal Insignia was made in both Lt. and Rt. Versions!!

Have no Idea of the significance of the different 'directions' of the TN means?

Has anyone seen the same thing?
