I would add "Selbschutz" cuff band to the list. Not well known but it existed.

P.S. Plus "Narva" and "Lett. SS. Frw. Division" ...

I've spoke with several large cloth collectors about this topic and we've come up with a rough number around 600 cufftitle varients. Remember there are many Allgemeine as well as honour titles which are very few and far between. That's the great thing about our hobby, there are still new examples still turning up. You could focus a lifetime on just this subject and still never see it all. And with prices today, you'd have to be a millionaire to try to assemble this collection.

'Feldherrnhalle' doesn't belong in this list. "Landwacht Nederland" was the name of the unit, and some members were supposed to wear titles with 'Landwacht'. I should have said it better in my first posting. There is a list of cufftitles mentioned on axishistory, although with some spelling errors in the names.

It is very important to keep in mind that of some titles variants do exist. I stand corrected when I am wrong, but I believe some Norwegian volunteers modified their cufftitles on an individual basis. A title bearing 'Freiw. Legion Norwegen' was altered in removing the wordings 'Freiw.' and 'Legion'. Perhaps some of our Norwegian colleagues can clarify the use of cufftitles by volunteers from their country?

All the best,

Cees

600??? ok, i give up, with 400-600 ct´s its an impossible task obviously. Time to buy the books mentioned.

Just the BeVo woven and BeVo-like 1-2-3 woven cufftitles, there are about 45 different examples.

[Alexander Zöller]

Wasn't there an SS-Kriegsberichter too?

There sure was... and SS-KB-Abt before that.

[Mr.Jerry D]

GroBduetchland wasn't SS, it was army.

There was also an early SS-VT "SS-Pz Ab??" for the anti-tank troops. and similarly SS-totenpfverband that only a few (if that many) examples exist.

There are really bunches of them!
( wish I had more )
