Croatian Legion

[Douglas]

I picked up a great book on the Croatian Legion – 369th Reinforced (Croatian) Infantry Regiment on the Eastern Front 1941-1943.
The Croatian Legion fought with the Heer 100th Jäger Division, the only German Jäger Division that fought at the Battle of Stalingrad.

I also found two Croatian arm-shields worn by soldiers who fought with the Croatian Legion.
The first is the German produced “Kroatien” arm-shield which is a difficult one to find.
The second is the arm-shied with the Serbo-Croat spelling for Croatia “Hrvatska”.
