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
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?
