The book "Jugend im Reich" published in 1943 has a photo of what appear to be BDM girls tipping a bucket of potatoes into a burlap bag. The girl holding the bag is wearing her district triangle (Nord Nordmark) and a medic's life rune patch on the sleeve of her sweater. She is also wearing a cuff title on the same sleeve. The wording on the cuff title title is not completely visible, what can be seen reads "KLV-Sell....". I've not seen that cuff title before. Does anyone know what the rest of the cuff title should be? Unfortunately, I do not own the book so I am unable to post a more hi-res scan.

BDM cuffband
Hi
possible a cuffband relating to a Kinderverschickungslager (KLV) a camp to protect children from the rain of bombs in the city`s .mainly from 1943 onwards there was several of these camps, even 22 in Denmark where I´m from.
The translation may be a "camp for children, send away", just like children in UK.Last edited by hallandsen; 06-12-2008, 01:46 PM. -
By golly you just may be right. I wasn't thinking along those lines. Thanks very much for your response.Comment
