AHA, ok. And what is this raute? It is SA?

[C. Betz]

Raute

The raute denotes former membership in the SA. " Former members of the SA who reported for duty in death heads units were authorized an arm badge on 16 November, 1939 with the SA insignia upon a black cloth diamond." Ref: Angolia's Cloth Insignia of the SS, 2nd Edition, 1989, Page 212.

Agree with the others, insignia are reproductions. Collar tabs are especially bad.
