What would be the correct colors for the Piping and Shoulder boards for the crew of a anti tank gun?

Hi Bob,

If you referring to a German anti tank gun crew, then the piping is pink.

If you were part of a anti-tank battalion within the division, infantry, mountain, etc.,
you wore pink piping with a 'P' + the battalion #.

If you were a anti-tank company within a regiment, infantry, mountain, etc., you wore the appropriate waffenfarbe
white/infantry, green/mountain, etc., of the attached regiment.

Cheers,
Joe
