SS Kampfbinde (Armband) uniform attached

Whatever the issue might be, let the fact stand that I collect said objects intact, just as I collect cap badges along with caps....

The world's subtle and arcane thingies defy categorization, elude analysis, and puzzle us all with their mysteries across the chasm of time.

When I reflect on the item on the dealer's website, I am grateful that the uniforms I have been able to secure are in a more or less high state of preservation....

Though, one must also say, that, if the legendary and mythical GI tore off the sleeve in May, 1945, there is some poetry to same, as well. However, I have never much cared for this kind of story, in fact.

I am just as happy with the piece found years later in a hock shop or wherever, without smoke and gun powder or whatever.

Nice Armband,ND! I Like it! (and the ribbing on the stripes is Vertical too! lol) Excellent piece! William

crimped prongs and vertical stripes and fore head free pressure.......no wonder the ex chicken farmer is smiling at us for being such total fools.

If you had a time machine, you could ask these people about their cross grain on their dagger, and the dings in the pommel, as well as the vertical stripes. I am sure they would regard you as a complete nit wit. I am also sure that some who post on sites (like the maroon one...) would then try to tear the sleeve off to secure the brassard.

Your generalization applies to posts # 12 and # 14 above. Happy collecting.

More important than any object I may or may not own by a quirk of luck or time is the sum of knowledge signified by nearly seven thousand posts on this site.
