WWII German Army Infantry Standard Bearer Sleeve Patch-This is an excellent, example. The patch is machine woven (BeVo) in three colors: aluminum thread (flat wire), white thread (infantry branch color), and black thread. These are all woven onto a thin, dark green rayon backing cloth. The insignia portrays two crossed Standards in miniature, with a cluster of oak leaves in aluminum thread woven at the bottom center. This very colorful and desirable patch would be worn on the right shoulder of the one person in the unit that was designated to carry the regimental standarte (flag). This patch has had a white backing added. Excellent condition!
