Heer Breast Eagles

Heer (Army) Insignia Main Page
| Historical Note The different styles of EM Breast Eagles are manufacturing variations only. No certain style was "required" for a particular model of tunic. The designations (M36, M40 and M43 Breast Eagles) are NOT WWII German terms. We made these names up to help identify them during packing! M36 tunics had "late War" eagles and M44's have been seen with "early War" eagles and so on. It's a matter of personal preference. The comments in the description are to indicate what reenactors and collectors consider "typical". "Correct" or "incorrect" would not be proper terms. Sewing Notes Position: Breast Eagles on worn on the right breast just above the pocket. Sewing Bevo Insignia: 1. Trim the border material about 1/4-1/2 inch from the actual insignia. 2. With a warm iron or using fabric cement, roll the border back and crease along the edge of the insignia. 3. Sew patch on. Yes, this is a pain in the rear. Warning! 1. Trimming the border off at the edge of the insignia will result in fraying or the patch. 2. Using too hot a setting on the iron can melt the insignia. |
