i HAVE HAD THIS FOR YEARS SITTING IN THE 'WHAZIT' box. Does anyone know the country, era, and purpose of this patch?
Thank you,

Hello Bob,
Interesting patch. The spelling has my interest picqued.
I don't know what it may be for but I'm almost certain that the word is Germanisized Lithuanian. The suffix letters 'TAITIS is a Lithuanian configuration. The 'SZ" combination seems to be the German equivalent the Lithuanian S with a check or v above it. The pronunciation would be as our 'SH'.
Less likely, this dialect may have been shared along the Lithuanian /Latvian border areas.
I'll see what I can find in my sources about this.
Best regards,
