    Heer division coat of arms (emblems)

    Hello to all

    Is there a website or a book that summarize the Heer coats of arms / division emblems ?

    I can see one on wikipedia but it’s pretty imcomplete (or maybe all divisions did not have any own emblem)

    I'm searching for some that i didi not found (159 Reserve division by example)

    Thanks

      This is the best resource I know of- not all units had symbols.

        There is no complete work on the subject and i doubt there ever will be. Divisional insignia are the easy ones but many other unit types had symbols, not to mention the LW, KM and SS.

        The most complete work on the subject is the 4 volume
        Die Truppenkennzeichen der Verbände und Einheiten der deutschen Wehrmacht und Waffen-SS und ihre Einsätze im Zweiten Weltkrieg 1939-1945 published by biblio-verlag
        Collecting German award documents, other paperwork and photos relating to Norway and Finland.

          There are two more now in the series but it is expensive now and hard to find a complete set- Volume one is for the Army and the newer volumes also contain recently edited updates and corrections etc..

          Band 5: Gesamtdarstellung, Neuaufnahmen, Ergänzungen und Berichtigungen: Artillerie / Pioniere / Nachrichten / Versorgung / Sicherung. Ca. 580 Seiten.

          ISBN 3-7648-2475-1

          Band 6: Gesamtdarstellung, Neuaufnahmen, Ergänzungen, Berichtigungen: Kriegsmarine / Luftwaffe / Waffen-SS / Verbündete. Ca. 600 Seiten.

          ISBN 3-7648-2514-6
