Badges in the form of shields form a unique field of collecting, for they reveal much more about their former wearer than most awards from that period and thus allow him to emerge from anonymity. This publication, richly illustrated with contemporary photographs, documents, certificates of ownership, certificates and other facsimiles, is intended to help one find one's way through the plethora of manufacturer variants, ordinances and copies. Which information on the arm shields of the German Wehrmacht is wrong, which shields are internal to the troops, which are projected but no longer executed and which shields are purely fantasy products? This book, with many brilliant photographs (mostly Avers/Revers) of exemplary original pieces, should help to find an answer to all these questions and thereby also provide more security when acquiring future pieces. Indispensable for every experienced collector and historian, as well as for anyone who wants to get to grips with this period. Author: Uwe Lautenschläger
