Here is your chance to pick up a very nice DLV sleeve eagle. This machine produced example is clearly issued with uniform threads remaining around the edges. Looks to have been in a veterans scrapbook as well. You’d be hard pressed to find one better than this. The Deutscher Luftsportverband was an organisation set up by the Nazi Party in March 1933 to establish a uniform basis for the training of military pilots. Since the Treaty of Versailles officially forbade Germany from building fighter planes of any sort, the German Air Sports Association used gliders to train men still officially civilians for the future Luftwaffe. The first steps towards the Luftwaffe’s formation were undertaken just months after Adolf Hitler came to power. Its chairman was Hermann Göring.
