For a while now i've been trying to track down information as to whether or not the 'Generaloberst Dietl' or 'Dietl' cuffband was ever produced and worn. I had as yet been unable to find any evidence either for or against their award. That was until Kai Winkler's last update http://www.nordheideversand.de . He is offering a 'Generaloberst Dietl' cufftitle for sale and if my bad German has got it right he states that it is only one of 3 known examples.
What do you guys think? I honestly don't know, its a little difficult when you don't have anything to refer to. I do believe however that the cuffband was produced and worn, but that belief is until further evidence comes along based on reasoning more than anything else.
At any rate the asking price is way over my budget (wifes level of tolerance)
