This is an odd looking one. It was sent to me free of charge from a collector in the UK that cut it from a swatch with several of these on it. It's small in size (approx. 2in high by 1 in across). It's printed on yellow cotton and the loose theads burn like period cloth. The coloration is odd to...
Hi and happy holidays,
finally I have a bit time to go thru the forum again. I bought the HJ book from Fj Stephens a few days agao and saw in there a picture with a long row of DJ boys holding their Trumpet banners and all were of the same kind, the one with the jungbann eagle on it. I have...

I have been told by Clyde Davis that this strap is not Landjahr, but an early Bann Munich Oberbann 3 after he viewed this photo. He has quite an advanced collection and he's been collecting and reseraching HJ for decades so I do respect his opinion.
I've seen early photos identified as...
Gerhard Hein was Landjahr camp leader in the HJ.
In 1936 he came as a volunteer to Infanterieregiment 86. In 1938 he was promoted Unteroffizier der Reserve and was then discharged from the army. In August 1939 he was drafted into the Infanterieregiment 209 and became platooncommander in the...
