No problems Roman. A week ago I have got latvian tab and shild from this dealer. I am pity only that such variation of the shilds and tabs were not so popular during the war as latvian made shilds and runic tabs. Do you have any other latvian volunteers items in you collection?

Unfortunately I don't have anything of latvian volunteers - I just to start my collection. But if I'll have something - I'll let you know !

I think you'll find that the Ostbattalion site is just for reference and they've 'borrowed' Gailen David's images to demonstrate the insignia worn.

Cheers,Ian.

(If you want to buy original volunteer insignia you could do a lot worse than GDM he certainly has a good reputation and I've never seen him with anything dubious)
