Francais armband

[Pop]

Hi. A friend of mine has asked me if I can find out what this armband is. He purchased it a long time ago with an amount of other items.

Wild guess: Denotes French translator?
Sorry, not seen one before.

Oz.

Wild guess: Denotes French translator?

Or for a tourist guide?

If I follow Master Snyder...

It was used in the Olympic Games to be worn by a French speaking German Police Officer.

It has several slight moth bites and is in near excellent condition.

Thank you for taking the time to reply with that information.

Oddly enough, I rather like the construction and the materials of it...
