I drew this Polish eagle without knowing exactly what it is and what is stands for. So what is it?
Would anyone of your gentlemen have a photo of this plaque we could use on our website?
Historical background: "The Związek Jaszczurczy conducted intelligence and sabotage operations within territory of Nazi occupied Poland as well as in and around Berlin, Brandenburg area, München, Silesia, Bavaria, Westfalen, Ruhr Basin, Hamburg, Bremen, western and eastern Pomerania area including Krolewiec, and Gdansk. The eradication of the Związek Jaszczurczy became of such importance to the Nazis, that already at the end of 1940, the Gestapo created dedicated unit, known as the SS-Sonderkommando ZJ [ger. Special Unit ZJ], in order to stop its sabotage and intelligence activities. In December 1941 the first wave of arrests of the NSZ / Zwiazek Jaszczurczy's agents began. At the end of 1943 alone, 80 individuals were arrested. The Military Tribunal of III Reich, German military laws, more rigorously expanded during war, dealt with those arrested mercilessly. From among dozens of arrested, only 3 individuals (among them one German national) were found not guilty. The others were sentenced to lengthy imprisonment, and the half of them were sentenced to death. The names of the ZJ agents of the Intelligence Unit West sentenced to death and executed by the Nazis by decapitation at the Moabit prison in Berlin, are immortalized on a commemorative plaque at the St. Brigida's Basilica in Gdansk, Poland."
All the best,

Looking at purchasing this armband. The tag looks kind of funny. I haven't seen a simular tag on any of the other armbands I have seen. Armband is made of wool.
I would appreciate any input.
Thanks,

Hi Guys,
I was at a small gun show yesterday and came across a 2nd pattern Luft
dagger with a black handle. I have never seen one before and I am wondering
if it might be worth my going back for a 2nd look?
Thanks for your help.
