Hello all,
I recently got this HJ Armband, which, according to the stamp on it, belonged to a member of 'Motorbann IV/471' if I read it correctly (the stamp has worn off a lot, so it's kind of hard to read). It's in very nice condition and I don't think there are any problems with it, except for the RZM label. As far as I know, an armband should have a 'B-label' for cloth insignia (or 'Baumwolle', where the 'B' comes from). Mine, however, has an 'A-label' (which stands for equipment or 'Ausrüstung), which also looks fine in my opinion but I'm just wondering why this label is on the armband. According to what I have read, it is possible that they would have used different labels because the proper ones were unavailable at the time. I'm not really sure though since I've seen other ones with an 'A-label' listed online, but I'm pretty certain this particular label wasn't attached later and I bought it from a trustworthy dealer. There is, of course, no real way to be certain.
I'm looking forward to your professional opinions.
Best regards,
Gerebernus
