The triangle is for BDM , and looks good to me , and the cuff title is for the 1st Musselmann SS-Regiment , which was composed of Moslems from the Turkestan region , it looks OK to me but I wait for a second option . SS stuff is a mine field and I couldn't say if good for sure .
Cheers Chris

BeVo" SS cuff titles: how to spot original from fakeBeVo" not sure if the paste worked but there is a thread about bevo cuff titles ,it is in the SS section . I think it stands a good chance , I've read that these were made but never issued , and being for a rather late war unit " Ostturkische Waffen-Verband der SS "might not be as faked as other SS items . Good luck and I hope it's a good one .
Cheers Chris

Hi Ed, the cuff title looks good. Close up pics should confirm this.

Cheers, Ade.

I concur with the other opinion that this is an original period piece. These were found and liberated by U S soldiers from the insignia lots at Dachau. My first cufftitle was one of these bought for the lofty sum of $3.00 in the late 1950's. Many years went by before I found out exactly what it was.
