"foreign" HJ arm triangles????

[accrazeee]

Hello,

I've been seeing some "interesting" HJ armtriangles / gebietsdreiecke.
I think there were some departements of the HJ/DJ that were situated outside Germany, now I've never seen any photo's of youth wearing armpatched like these.

Some examples:
West Niederlande (for BDM with white letters)
Dj Rumanien (blue background, white hand-stitched)
Reichs deutsche jugend Ausland (like reg. HJ: yellow on black)
USA (yellow hand-stitched on black)
Nederland (yellow on black)

Some of them have RZM-tags, some dont. All of them are advertised as "real" and "extremely rare" and pass the "black light test"
The last one has my special interest but it's VERY strange that the language in which the patch is written is Dutch (from the Netherlands a.k.a. "nederland) and not German (Niederlande)

ANY help would be very appreciated. Any photo's of proof or does anyone have any of these in their collection.?
I can post photo's myself but I got most of them from dealer websites and not sure whether that is legal.

Thanks

AC

Hi AC, welcome to the forum!

I take it you have seen the ones shown in Jack Angolia's two volume set of books on the HJ? These are the only ones I have seen.

Showing photos from dealers websites is OK as long as you give credit, or just add a link to the site in question so we can see for ourselves.

Cheers, Ade.

unfortunately, I still have to get the two books of Angolia
Would it be possible to post photo's of it?
Or does anyone have any photo's of HJ-members wearing any of these items?

thanks
