Description
Our Wehrmacht German Obergefreiter Rank Chevron is a finely crafted insignia, designed as an inverted triangle made from silver-coloured tresse on a field-grey wool backing. These chevrons are intended to be sewn onto the sleeve, adding an authentic touch to any uniform. The isosceles triangle measures 10 cm along its two longer sides and 9 cm along the shorter side, ensuring an accurate representation of the rank.
The rank of Obergefreiter was historically awarded to enlisted soldiers who demonstrated leadership potential. This promotion gave them control over small squads or to those soldiers who held the rank of Gefreiter and below.
