Hello Patrick,


Thank you. I believe you may want to see my favorite piece of German war art. This Jaeger is hand carved and complete with cap eagle and edelweiss, breast eagle, collar tabs and shoulder boards, Iron Cross 2nd Class ribbon, Iron Cross 1st Class, pistol holster, and even the nountain type cleats on the soles of his boote.

The carving has cut out edelweisses on the base. It is truely remarkable and artistic.

Even though mountain troop, I still think he makes a fine Jaeger.

Detail of insignia. The bronze ski is rivited to the standard, 3 edge prong jaeger insignia. The wear to the hat leads me to believe it has always been in place. This is the only one I have ever seen that I believed. But, who am I........
