Patch Jäger zu Pferde 3

[AJ]

Hi,
just got this patch. I have no doubt that is original, just never saw it before!

Patch is dark fieldgray in color and show signs of sewings from being sewn unto a uniform.

According to litterateur, the part of the Jäger zu Pferde Regiment 3 did continue duty in the Freikorps in the area of Russisch-Polen after November 1918.

My question; would this patch be a semi official pre-November 1918 patch for the JzP regiment 3 or would it rather be a Freikorps related?

My guess would be that it is a postwar item. I've not seen anything like it before.

Hi Chip,

thanks for your input

according to the input at the Freikorps / Weimar Period Forum (1918-1933) it's proberly a Reichswehr Traditionabzeichen for former members of the JzP 3 serving at the Reichwehr Reiter Regiment 10.
