German WW1 Preussen Infanterie Regiment 93 shoulder boards
This is the Feldgrau version for combat use.
Finding shoulder boards in this condition, more than 100 years old, is getting very hard.
Excellent condition.
Made of grey-green wool with white piping and chain stitched numerals indicating the 93rd Regiment.
The 93rd Reserve Infantry Regiment (Reserve-Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 93, or RIR 93) was a German unit formed in August 1914, serving on the Western Front as part of the 1st Guards Reserve Division and later the 4th Guards Infantry Division. It primarily engaged in heavy fighting in Belgium and France, losing over 3,000 soldiers before disbanding in 1918.
