Mysterious letter "H" on the sleeve.

[Die Freicheit]

Guys, tell me, please,what does the letter "H" mean on the sleeve of a German soldier?

[Prosper Vandenbroucke]

Maybe H stands for "Hilfswilliger" ? or "Hiwi"
Kindly regards

Strange thing....How supposedly the soldier would wear it applied ( if it were a real cloth H letter ) sewn ?, painted ?,
doesn't appear to be part of an armband.
Do you know anything about where it was taken ? Germany ?


Enlarging the image doesn't help.

I found the photo in a public. It is dedicated to the Third Reich. I don't know where the founder of the public got the photo from. Perhaps it from a personal collection, however I'm not sure. On the back of the photo it says: "Mit Freund Kurt am Schillertheater in Berlin, als Kurt in Urlaub war. Frühjahr 1941" — "With a friend Kurt at the Schiller Theater in Berlin when Kurt was on vacation. Spring 1941".
