Sergeant 08 Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 (edited) These things were posted in WAF. From a man, who was in the Brigade Ehrhardt im Verband SS in 1934. What is with the skull on the black material? Could it be a kind of commemorative sleeve skull, which showed that the member was in the Sturmkompanie in past? Edited September 2, 2011 by Sergeant 08
Sergeant 08 Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 (edited) Who knows more about this skull? Edited September 2, 2011 by Sergeant 08
Sergeant 08 Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 (edited) What is with this one? Edited September 2, 2011 by Sergeant 08
Sergeant 08 Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Questions, questions, questions....Skulls are an own chapter!
Thomas W Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 A still from the 2001 cable-TV movie The Lost Battalion. Note that the flamethrower pioneer is wearing a small sleeve badge that more resembles Kokampf insignia, a black circular patch with a white skull on it.
Sergeant 08 Posted September 10, 2011 Posted September 10, 2011 Two of my last purchased items. I think the photo is rarer than the medal!
Sergeant 08 Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 (edited) More skulls arrived..... Edited September 12, 2011 by Sergeant 08
Sergeant 08 Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 (edited) Robin, did you see this photo? Looks not like your gorget. Edited September 20, 2011 by Sergeant 08
Sergeant 08 Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 (edited) A rare photo on ebay today. ;) Edited September 27, 2011 by Sergeant 08
Robin Lumsden Posted October 18, 2011 Author Posted October 18, 2011 Gorget is similar, but BW TK. I've been unable to get on to GMIC for about 2 months ......... now I'll be catching up on all the missed posts!
Chip Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 Robin, Would like to get your opinion on a skull cavalry (Husar) pennant being shown on the WAF. Here is the address of the page. http://www.wehrmacht-awards.com/forums/showthread.php?p=4916061&posted=1#post4916061 Chip

Robin Lumsden Posted October 19, 2011 Author Posted October 19, 2011 Good to see that you are back! I was locked out for weeks ................... don't know what happened.
Chip Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 RR5 marks are bogus .................... but looks like it could be an original LHR 2 pennon. Thanks Robin, but wouldn't you think that such a thing would have legitimate imperial markings on it? Chip
Robin Lumsden Posted October 20, 2011 Author Posted October 20, 2011 Thanks Robin, but wouldn't you think that such a thing would have legitimate imperial markings on it? Chip Hello Chip. I have LHR1 amd LHR2 pennons ................. both completely unmarked.
Chip Posted October 21, 2011 Posted October 21, 2011 Hello Chip. I have LHR1 amd LHR2 pennons ................. both completely unmarked. Do you feel comfortable with that? Chip
Robin Lumsden Posted October 22, 2011 Author Posted October 22, 2011 Do you feel comfortable with that? Chip Yes ................ they are 'one lookers'.
Robin Lumsden Posted October 31, 2011 Author Posted October 31, 2011 Just 'bumping' this in the forlorn hope that some more information regarding the black TK may have come to light. No others have appeared in the last 30 months, so far as I am aware.
Robin Lumsden Posted November 17, 2011 Author Posted November 17, 2011 Modern painting on a WW1 bottle ........................ http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WW1-GERMAN-WATER-BOTTLE-RELIC-STORMTROOPER-FLAMMENWERFER-TOTENKOPF-GAS-MASK-/230701222115?pt=UK_Collectables_Militaria_LE&hash=item35b6dd48e3#ht_500wt_1413
Thomas W Posted November 17, 2011 Posted November 17, 2011 Modern painting on a WW1 bottle ........................ http://www.ebay.co.u...3#ht_500wt_1413 At some point I'm hoping to find a period photo of a flamethrower pioneer with a Totenkopf on his helmet. In the meantime...
Robin Lumsden Posted December 11, 2011 Author Posted December 11, 2011 No black skull here ...................... but I look at this FK photo and think that ANYTHING is possible! :cheeky:
