Hi Folks Me (Ron) again, in Springfield Missouri. Just have to show you this REAL armband that came in a cigarbox of shell casings and other stuff a veteran's wife brought in. I have never seen this printed type befor in Black letters instead of the 2 line in bevo yellow. It's the real deal and Just wanted to see if anyone else has seen one before and to share new information hopefully . Constructed of 2 layers sewn together. has been on a uniform and holes from pin on sides and on the top to keep it securely on the arm so this one I know was used in WWII. Once again I will see you all soon in Louisville!!!

Ron,

It is nice to see one of these printed Feldgendarmerie armbands come out of a veteran grouping. They are so easily faked most people shy away from them because it is so difficult to tell the good from the bad ones.
