Nationalsozialistische Kriegsopferversorgung arm patch

[johnschou]

I have just bought this NSKOV Reichs Kreigerbund veterans arm patch, it is in nice condition, is there any additional info.
There is ofcourse Wikipedia (National Socialist War Victim's Care - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Best regards
John

Likely for wear on the armband and not an arm patch. A nice original example.

The NSKOV (NS Kriegsopferversorgung e.V) is not the NS Reichskriegerbund (formerly the Deutscher Reichskriegerbund).
The NSKOV was a sub-organization for the NSDAP (der Partei angeschlossener Verband).

The symbol is for the Reichskriegerbund.

Hi Wilhelm
Thank you for the correction that the armband is Reichskriegerbund

In my opinion this is just a patch and no armband.
The armband for the Reichskriegerbund always has a dark backing.

Hi Wilhlem
You arwe right, I did some searching on the net, and it is correct that the armband has a dark backing.
