World War II German SS/SD insignia fascinate me. I lived in Germany in the 1970s/80s, and sometimes saw them them covertly for sale in antique shops, flea markets etc - Death's Head badges, lightning flashes, unit insignia. But the Germans were always rather cautious about displaying them openly, and they were extremely expensive.
