Hi, welcome, your pictures are not showing up yet, probably an admin issue. Best Rich

Hey everyone, I was given this lapel pin by a relative about 45 years ago. Have no idea where he got it from but he was too young to fight in WWII. I always assumed he got it from someone who brought it back to Canada from the war. I showed it to a militaria buyer and seller at an antique show yesterday. He suggested that it might be a British repro from the 70's. I've a attached a few photos for your perusal. On the back side it says 72 on one wing and there's a circle and RMZ on the other wing (see photo of my terrible artwork). I'm very interested in finding out more about this artifact.

copy of germans WW2 time skull ring

Guys, that is what I think it is? It was found in the attic space in a ST (Stables) block here in the barracks in Bergen Belsen last year. Amazing what can sometimes be found. It has padded shoulders and the square pocket flaps and exageratted collar flaps which leads me to beleive female use. Private purchase lable. You can see where the 4 hole large flat buttons have been removed for further use. Dosen't have cuff flaps or the half belt at the rear but I have seen others so and it was likely an expedient measure of late war production It does have a full Kunstseide lining which is typical of war time production, although issue types tend to have cloth lining in the arms. Luftwaffe blue grey. Anybody any thoughts? Rich

Guys, as stated above, looks very young. Just like the Bundeswehr kids I see here in Bergen. Rich

Guys, A Bundeswehr pal just found this, lying on the ground at the old Lazrett here in Bergen by Belsen. I was always a bit skeptical bout these things but there you go, every day is a school day. rich

Hi Rich, thanks for the reply! Can you tell me what "WRF" is? Zach

I remember WRF having a strong Soviet knowledge base, perhaps you could enquire there? Best Rich
