I was just wondering... Is it really SvB287 ? I would guess the photos are of 288's soldaten. On two photos they are wearing SvB288 patches anyway (right sleeve - palm tree and raising sun).

Freies Arabien Legion:

This would be an ideal unit for those from ethnic backgrounds who might wish to portray 3rd Reich forces. Does anyone know of any persons who might be interested in this?
