Original German SS Totenkopf Division Collar Tab

History

The German Totenkopf Division, also known as the 3rd SS Panzer Division "Totenkopf," was one of the infamous Waffen-SS divisions during World War II. The name "Totenkopf" translates to "Death's Head" in English and refers to the skull and crossbones symbol that was part of the division's insignia.

The collar tabs were an essential part of the uniform, and they indicated the wearer's unit and rank. For the Totenkopf Division, the collar tabs typically featured the Totenkopf symbol alongside other insignia representing the wearer's rank and position within the division.

It's important to note that collecting or displaying items associated with Nazi Germany, including military insignia and memorabilia, is a sensitive topic due to the historical context of the Nazi regime and its atrocities. Many countries have strict laws governing the possession and sale of such items to prevent their misuse and to respect the memory of those who suffered under Nazi rule.
