Nice set Gary!
Guys, have you ever see the photos of latvian ss legioners with such cuff titles. I have information that legioners of 15th and 19th SS divisions was also decorated by Kurland cuff titles, but I have never see photos, soldbuchs and other confirmztions of that fact.Comment

Thanks Sergey!
Sadly I have not seen anything of the sort. I believe you are correct with your info but I have not seen a single photograph to support it.

Here is a Kurland that came with a 1957 group of medals and badges. It is so well made I had to keep it. The embroidery is done by hand in heavy black cord over cardboard unterlagen.

Wlad got all of these from a Russian vet. if I remember corretly, he had sewn them on a blanket. Also a pile of generals Collartabs, shoulder boards etc, all well worn. I think the vet was a POW camp guard.
I had 4 text book woven titles from him, he would not trade the others. maybe camp made after capture? Or made in Kurland at the unit?
