Hello,

I want to share with you my example of Pre WW2 Air Defence arm badge, Obrona Przeciwlotnicza.

Looks good Alex. Thanks for sharing. Your armband fabric appears to be more silk-like, whereas mine is a courser cotton.





Cheers,

Tony, Thank you kindly!
Just wondering if anyone could share an example (photo) to illustrate pre war or September 1939 Air Defence armband wear on Polish uniform or O.P. suit? I hope it makes sense. I would appreciate any photo! Thank you

Kind Regards
Alex

You're welcome Alex, no problem at all. A quick web search did not turn up any period pics. But here's one from what appears to be a museum display. Note the variation in the green / yellow fabric pattern:

Hi Alex,

it's a pleasure to find a common interest...
I have two different armbands with stamps. One (round) is hard to read and second one is from Gdynia.

Best regards,
