    Tropical Insignia of the Waffen-SS

    Hello,

    I am interested to know what tropical insignia exists for the waffen-SS?

    I have seen BeVo black on tan sleeve eagles, cap skulls, cap eagles. Also a few (mainly Transport) tropical shoulder straps and arm rank chevrons, but what else exists please?

    For example, do Officer style Tropical sleeve eagles and embroidered cap insignia exist?

    Are there tropical versions of any of the SS trade badges?

    Or was all the other insignia, worn on tropical uniform and headdress , that used on the standard grey uniform in Europe?

    Thank you, Keith

    The tropical insignia that I am aware of are:

    BeVo sleeve eagles
    BeVo cap sets (the eagle is rare, but exists!)
    Sleeve chevrons for Sturmmann (1 "V") and Rottenfuhrer (2 "V"'s)
    Shoulder straps NCO's: Artillery, Medical, Panzer, Transport and Light green for Mountain (Pz Grenadier???)

    There may be more that I am unaware of or have forgotten, especially shoulder straps.
