Original German WWII "Im Dienst der Deutschen Wehrmacht" Armband - ScreenprintedThis is an original “Im Dienst der Deutschen Wehrmacht” (In the Service of the German Armed Forces) armband. These were worn by civilian and auxiliary personnel who were performing official duties on behalf of the Wehrmacht, but were not enlisted soldiers—such as drivers, laborers, office staff, technicians, and security personnel.
The armband is made of a lightweight cotton with machine-sewn top and bottom edges. The bold black screenprinted lettering remains clear and fully legible.
The armband shows typical signs of period use and long-term storage, including scattered stains, age toning, and minor discoloration throughout. There are no tears or repairs, and the piece remains structurally sound. Overall in excellent condition.
