    This photo recently sold on German ebay looks like Prinz Eugen cuff band to me.
    Probably German NCO formerly with PE now with Handschar.

    George Lapre says

    It was taken in February 1944 as the Handschar Division was being transported from the training facility in Neuhammer to Bosnia.

      I hope the current owner dosen't mind me posting this image.
      Here is a press photo i used to own.
      At the time of me posting this long ago a fellow forum member (Martin 3) was kind enough to translate the reverse of the picture.

      After successful inclusion, days of rest in Mostar.
      ------------------------------------------------------------------
      An SS-division, which took part in anti-partisan fighting
      in Bosnia, sets off for some R&R. In Mostar a parade is being held
      in front of the division commander. The commanders/staff as well
      as the people of Mostar all took enthusiastically part in the
      impressive event.

      Written: Anti-partisan fighting in Bosnia, parade of an SS-division
      in front of the division commander at Mostar.

      Maybe there is a better word for inclusion, but I guess you know what I mean.
      Einsatz = to put in action.

      Cheers
      Dave.

            The "Prinz Eugen" division must have used camoflage smocks quite a lot. As in a book about the division that I have, there must be more pictures of men in camo than men without camo.
            The last picture is really nice, one can really see how damaging those boots would be for a wooden floor of a house
