Lappland Shield
Well here is my example just purchased of ebay from a seller who is currently selling a lot of dead relatives German patches epps shoulder boards etc all removed from uniforms . I guess he was a guard looking after the German when the Brits met the Germans up there ( apparently they kept the Germans at combat readiness in case they needed them to fight the Russians ) Anyway they were made from scraps of metal found round the camps . So here it is , it has a Nordic looking Longboat bow or Dragon on the back , but alas I cannot remove the backing . Smells lovely and musty .
