Rare tall M38 gasmask unit ID’ed to Luftgau-Kommando Norwegen

Rare original tall gasmask canister in near mint condition with a very low number 5 indicating a very high rank. The gasmask and its canister are both Feldpost number marked FelKl/5/St.H. L36018 Lg P. H. Bln. which indicates Luftgau Kommando Norwegen wich was the highest ranking Luftwaffe unit in Norway commanding all Luftwaffe units based in Norway. The gasmask is not named but the low number 5 indicates that it was a member of the high staff of this unit. Most probably a gasmask once belonging to a Oberst or General! Superb gasmask that would be very hard to upgrade!
