"Under the guidelines established by the Luftwaffe in 1942 for its forming divisions, jäger regiments wore jäger green collartabs and piped shoulderstraps. By late 1943, with the incorporation of the Luftwaffe field divisions into the Heer command structure, the color of shoulderstrap piping was changed to white in order to conform with existing Heer standards for infantry. The following guidelines should be used when adding insignia to your uniform:
1. Shoulderstraps may be piped in either white or jäger green. When wearing the fliegerbluse, preference should be given to the wear of jäger green as it will reflect that the tunic was issued to you prior to the incorporation of the Luftwaffe field divisions into the Heer. Either white or green piped shoulderstraps may be worn with the Heer tunic styles.
2. Luftwaffe collartabs are to be worn only with the fliegerbluse. In lieu of collartabs, gulls may be pinned directly to the collar of either the fliegerbluse or the feldbluse.
3. The Luftwaffe breasteagle backed in feldblaü may be worn on either the fliegerbluse or feldbluse. Heer insignia may be worn on the feldgraü feldbluse. By wearing a feldbluse with Heer insignia, your impression will be of a Luftwaffe jäger joining the division after its incorporation in the Heer command structure or of an "old hare" reissued uniform components from the Heer stocks during the same time period. Although it was not uncommon in tropical areas, collartabs and breasteagles of different branches should not be mixed on continental uniforms."
