BeVo 'Kroatian' Volunteer Sleeve Shield

WH (Heer) BeVo woven sleeve-shield as intended for a volunteer within the 'Kroatian' Legion (Kroatian Landeschilde). These particular armshields, showing a red-white coloured checkered shield, existed in German spelling ('Kroatien') and in Croatian language ('Hrvatska'), being the Serbo-Croat spelling for Croatia. This is an example with the Serbo-Croat spelling. The shield is executed in the neat so-called BeVo weave style on a field-grey linnen background. Nice original BeVo Eastern volunteer insignia in mint and unissued condition!
