Kevin,

According to the Eickhorn catalog, the red felt is a generic color for all Wehrmacht troops. It could also specifically designate Luftwaffe Flak formations.

You need to decide if you want an Army or Air Force frog and knot for your bayonet. Since it is a short model you will need a NCO knot for it from the service you decide.

Kevin

From your pictures you have a very nice bayonet. Mint bayonets are hard to come by.

I just love the oval Eick marks, and the stag always makes me look twice. Nice pickup.
