I don't know what the marking is, but I do know that it's not an Estonian - nor a divisional insignia. If you look carefully, you will notice the yellow "Das Reich" divisional insignia on the right (next to the licence plate) on the very same half-track.FransN wrote:1'54" A Sd. Kfz. 251 passes by with on its right-hand wing/fender a tilted capital letter E or "epsilon" over a tilted white stripe or maybe sword. The halftrack seems to have an SS license plate. Think of the first (and unpopular) German-designed collar patch for the 20. W.Gren.Div. d. SS (estn. Nr. 1): a tilted sword superimposed over a letter "epsilon".... . Is this a crude divisional sign for this division or do I have a rich imagination?
(See my previous post for the real Estonian divisional insignia.)
I don't know what this marking is either, but it surely isn't Latvian and it probably isn't a divisional insignia.FransN wrote:Then have a look a the Opel Blitz at 2'29" with on its right-hand wing/fender a capital letter L with a vertical stripe to the right of it. Again, this vehicle appears to have an SS license plate. Think of the alleged divisional symbol for the 15. W.Gren.Div. d. SS (lett. Nr. 1)... However, this division wasn't in the Protectorate Böhmen-Mähren (now Czech republic) at the time.
