Information on armband

[Derek H]

Greetings

Can anyone tell me what the armband is that I am describing. Unfortunately I haven't come across any pictures online to post.

It looks like the standard nsdap swastika armband but instead of the red cotton it seems to be a dull greenish colour, outside that it just has the 9-10cm white circle with the swastika on it.

Does this sound familiar to anyone?

Many thanks
Derek

If memory serves, it was worn by the Stahlhelm when first absorbed by the SA. Not common as they were worn only for a short time. I could be wrong about the organization, but it was one that was ultimately absorbed by the SA or SS.
