Interesting - looks like a Prinz Eugen issued tag , but " Partisan Jäger " is unusual - can I ask where you got it ?

Re: Illustrated history of the Handschar Division
From Kaltnegger's book.
Handschar officer with different style Edelweiss patches/insignia.
An introduction by Sauberzweig to his men (early days) An English version is in part 1.
An example of the bi-lingual aspects to the division. Same message in Bosnian

Re: Illustrated history of the Handschar Division
Two more photos from Kaltenegger's book, in which no unit information is given.
If these were dated, it could be easier to determine if the men in question were from the 7th or 13th.
