    Odd Skull

    I wonder what this is from?

    It looks like the one at the base of the citation.

    I still think it is Freikorps. Too many different Freikorps existed. Who knows all?

    Do you remember, there was a picture which I posted in the other forum with a similar skull.

        I have never found an answer for the next skull. It came with with some Freikorps badges, but it means nothing. It has two holes (for sewing on).

            Can you tell me more about the skull? Was it worn by all members of the Legion in Russia?

              The skull from top picture was worn only Czech Legioners, not the Russian Forces.

                    Hi
                    Not everyone czechoslovak legionnaires in russia wear skulls.. Skulls like emblem wear ONLY members of czech military elite troops from "1. samostatný úderný prapor" = "1. czechoslovak separate assault batallion". This assault battalion had only 4 companies = overall only 800 men. This version of the skull (if it is original) is rare..

                      Thanks for your comment! Here is the back of the skull. Here you can still see the silvering of the skull.
