    Luftwaffe Obeserstleutnant (Lt. Colonel). Could be from any time in the 1970s through present. At least I think the wings appeared on shoulder rank starting in the 1970s.

    Official rank on Flecktarn is as above. There's a black version for combat use, though the white type is used pretty much as standard. Private purchase rank on Flecktarn cloth started showing up in the mid 1990s. I'm not sure it's official now or not, but it's certainly common.
