Pannwitz Cossacks...GJ ?

Post by Yuri »

Seems that guy in photo posted below is wearing Edelweiss:

Photo is - as far as I know - showing one of Pannwitz Cossacks and it is all info available sadly :cry:

Is that Edelweiss or some other emblem that this guy is wearing?

Thanks for any help

Yep, that's an Edelweiss, but he's not one of the Pannwitz men; as far as I remember, this photo was made in 1942, Caucasus.

I don't mean to hijack this thread, but does anyone have a closeup of the arm patch used by the von Jungschutz regiment?
