    Probably one of the best quality collections I've seen so far!

    Got a few questions:
    1. What is that Latvian badge? Is it a combat award?
    2. Anyone knows what a Estonian combination would look like?

    Thanks in advance!

    Best regards

      Rūdolfs, 1. Liepājas kājnieku pulks .. Liepaja regiment (German Libau). its a regimental badge.. each regiment had their own badge. I picked this one as it was worn on ss Tunic.. so its not a pure volunteer award as the frontkjemper badge etc. But proudly worn on ss uniforms. The Estonian badge can be bit tricky. I have a picture of a Estonian officer with a cross on his pocket, but it's hard to say for a fact which badge this is. Maybe somebody of the guys can help with that question.
      Cheers
      Emil

          What a beautiful badge!

          P.S. Technically speaking, any interwar Estonian army badge could be worn - I am sure soldiers wore their old army badges. Now, what would look good, would be any badges that were produced in Reichkomissariat Ostland or any badges made specifically for Estonian volunteers.

            Great news.. and a very nice badge.
            Here are some more Estonian badges that for sure where mounted on ss tunics.

              Hi guys,

              thanks Emil, Sturmmann & Askold for your answers! I think this collecting area is really interesting since I learn something new each day.

              Askold, do you know any of these Reichkomissariat Ostland-made badges that you post here in the thread?

              Best regards

                              Hey guys.
                              Took me some time but finally I found a great picture in wear!
                              a Finnish cross of liberty on a ss tunic.
                              Enjoy!

                                Which of course does´t make the cross more SS!
