I picked up this interesting French armband as worn by the Croix De Feu , a Nationalist French League from the interwar period. The Croix De Feu were primarily WWI veterans who had been awarded the Croix de guerre between 1914-1918. I suppose they were similar in scope to the German Freikorps in that they demonstrated and fought against Socialism and Communism. This is generally not my area of collecting but I was drawn to the skull emblem and thought it would fit in nicely with my Totenkopf collection.
