    ID this for a friend please

    I was sent this picture and description of a buckle from a friend of mine. This is the only picture he sent along with the description which follows. Any help would be appreciated.



    Here is his description-

    Since you will be unable to read the writing on the buckle here it is. At the face of a clock starting at 9:00 clockwise around to 3:00 it reads EINIGKEIT then starting at 9:00 counter clockwise reads RECHT . FREIHEIT. It has only those three words and a distinct dot is beteen each word. The buckle looks and feels like silver. On the back it is stamped on the flat skirt a triangle with something in it and numbers I'm unsure of 7 / 5 8 and it is finely pebbled on the front except in the circle with the eagle. I hope it's German. I really like it.

    Hopefully you can see the buckle good enough to tell me what it is. It's in real good shape and a soldier's name pinned inside the heavy flap behind the buckle. His name is K. H. Schweppe. Also on the heavy flap behind the buckle it has 8-64-41. On the clip on the other end of the belt is a diamond stamped inside OLC.

    I will thank you in advance for my friend.

    Regards,
    Eric

    This is a POST-war buckle not WWII.

      Thank you for that bit of information, I'm sure he will want to know that. Any idea about what it says or who used it (i.e. Army, Air Force, Forestry Service, etc)?
