My Small Edelweiss collection.

[Afrikakorpsrat64]

Various WW2 Edelweiss, sleeve and cap. WSS cap Edelweiss on black backing. Metal Heer cap Badge, Heer bevo sleeve, and an Unusual one that I just recently picked up. I like the strange and this one fit. Someone said possibly moths did the handy work. As it was one of the Embroidered on wool backing sleeve patches. I quite like it!

That would have been a lot of work to take the backing material away without damaging the embroidery. I like these sort of things done by bored soldiers!
