German Military Cuffbands 1784 to the Present

 

This single volume provides the collector, uniformologist and military historian with an in-depth reference work covering every known German military cuffband worn from 1784 to present. A careful twining of history, unit involvement, and descriptive text will give the reader a firm grasp of the purpose and use of each cuffband and its historical context. Many never-before published photographs of the bands in wear are an added bonus. Cuffbands of the following formations are detailed: The Hanoverian Army, Freikorps, Heer, Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine, Waffen-SS/SS-VT, Bundeswehr and the Nationale Volksarmee der DDR.
