Auxiliary armbands
I was wondering if these were made in the field or were they actually manufactured for FG units?
I've only ever seen either embroidered or printed types. I'll have a look through sone photos and see if I can find any that look field made.
According to the info I have, a stock of them was held for use when auxillaries had to be deployed. I have no idea how many, and I would assume they were held by the Feld. Gend. unit.

No problem.
I've had a look and all the pictures I have where the armband is vsible enough show it to be of the same style as the printed/embroidered ones. I suspect there were field made ones, but as I can't substantiate this claim, I'll leave it as a hypothesis!

The lettering was in yellow, not black!
Cyrus has them at http://www.soldat.com and I think you can get them from http://www.militaria-net.co.uk

Ours came from Soldat - they are good quality and the lettering style corresponds very well with an original.
