That’s not a Gauleiter armband, that would be red piping. The blue piping is for Orstgruppe which is the local and lowest level of the party. $50 on the tired armband What does the pin look like on the back of the eagle? -

Cap eagle is probably worth the most $75. The armband is a difficult one to price due to poor condition. I have no idea about Imperial items. -

It's a shame to see this group broken up. I wonder if the vendor has his federal awards as well. -

That's sad to hear. I bought canvas parts for the MB from them a long time ago. -

Please post some better photos of the two 14th AAF patches. It looks like you may have at least one good one, and if so, that is a nice patch. I agree with doyler on the other two. -

Sure, better than nothing. I guess it would be better to remove the Drinking Water kit and replace it with a bag for flares and a launcher. Looks like your kit has a flares/launcher bag. -

hello Jerry thanx for the message and the pictures. Yes I was aware, a few pieces are not too corrrect if compared to the official listing, as well as the spot being left empty by the missing flares - I had got one surplus Drinking Water Kit (the other being inside the USAAF C-2 pararaft kit) so, I put that in place of the flares. The said Water Kit is unopened and complete inside. For the rest I'm quite satisfied this way. This is the only survival kit I really wished to get, sooner or later, virtually completed - the other two M-592s on display as worn by the pilots (one for each of manufacturers) are without the original contents, and the same is for my very recent B-4 USAAF Survival Kit (mfg. by Companion Bags, Co.). This latter is a great finding, even if empty and missing most of straps that turned it into a back-type kit, when needed. As a seat-type pack I put it together w/ the C-2 pararaft and the standard seat cushion.
