Hi Hans
Morigi does the Ramcke Brigade "Meyer cap" insignia at £16.95,
what other insignia were you looking for?

hi Tom, not sure Ramcke had their own spercific insignia but were more generic tropical luftwaffe uniforms and equipment.

have a look at this great site www.ramcke.org.uk

If your refering to the scorpian badge, each of the 4 battalions in the Ramcke Brigade had a different badge, each battalion was organised as a kampfgruupe and named after the commanding officer, the scorpian badge was for kampfgruppe Von der Hydte (I/Fjr3). I don't know what emblem was used for the other three kampfgruppe.

Kampfgr. Kroh (I./FschJgRgt 2)
Kdr. - Major Kroh

Kampfgr. v.d. Heydte (I./FschJgRgt 3)
Kdr. - Maj v.d. Heydte
Adjt - Oblt Rolf Mager

Kampfgr. Burckhardt (FschLehrBtl)
Kdr. - Maj. Burckhard

Kampfgr. Hübner (II./FschJgRgt 5)
Kdr. - Maj. Hübner

The badge was field made so it would make sense to look at some pics and make one yourself, just to be authentic of course :lol: I have never seen one post war or in a collection, but I believe it is a red scorpian on a white back ground.
