Red fez that was part of the dress uniform of a Waffen-SS military detachment composed of Muslims from Bosnia, Croatia, and Herzegovina in occupied Yugoslavia. The creation of this unit was authorized by AH in 1943. The original purpose was to combat Tito’s partisans. Through recruitment and conscription, the unit had 26,000 soldiers within a few months. The group was commanded by German or ethnic German officers, and the uniforms were designed to reflect the religion and ethnicity of the recruits. This example is in very good condition. Size is approximately a US 7 (56cm) featuring red wool construction with leather sweatband. This example is 100% authentic. The SS eagle and skull are removed, but the outlines remain clearly visible.
