Fantasy item?

Post by LHistorian »

By the looks this specific medic armband has reproduction written all over this....but was there such an armband in use?

Starting to take interest in the world of the Sanitäter, and came across this rather cool looking armband in my searchings. So was just curios if they even used such elaborate crosses. Looks pretty gnarly though! :D

What do you guys think?

Put a German soldier into a box. Close it as tight as you can.

I have not seen this markings on any SS soldier in period photos. If it is expensive, I 'd avoid it. If it is cheap, it is really fake.

Much thanks Patrick, you as well Chris. Did a bit more poking about and came across this thread:

Think they cleared it up pretty nicely :)
