Runes and German units

Post by Kocjo »

Did any WH units used Runes for their sign? Because in »The eagle has landed« is a German truck, with a WH plates and Kragenspiegel on it.

Several Heer Inf. divisons used runes. Some were
3rd, 4th, 7th, 8th,16th,19th, and 36th. You can check them all out at

OK, what is a Kragenspiegel, other than a collar patch?
