Description: Includes 1 (one) embroidered 4" Edelweiss Mountain Gebirgsjager repo patch 4" embroidered oval patch reproduction of the German Mountain Proficiency Badge.The Gebirgsjager arm badgewas first introduced for wear on 2nd May 1 939. It was to be worn on the right upper arm 16 cm from the shoulder seam on the Field Blouse, the tunic and the Great coat by all qualified members of army mountain troop units.The badge consisted of an embroidered Edelweiss flower with white petals and yellow stamens, and with a pale green stem. and leaves. Surrounding the flower was a twisted mountaineering rope in matte grey thread with a silver-white piton (spike and ring). Over the years during the Cold War Era and even today some American Soldiers were awarded this patch after completing many tasks and events for being proficient with mountain warfare training in the Alps of Germany and Switzerland. Working and training alongside German soldiers of the bundeswehr special troops. The patch is made in the USA and hand trimmed. Great for sewing or gluing onto hats,vets,jackets,saddle bags etc. Also ideal fora Shadow Box to show off your pride in your service to the United States and the Free World and our NATO allies.
