WW2 German Bosnian Serb SS Photograph With Fezes 2 1/2″ X 3 1/2″ Original

This original World War II-era photograph measures approximately 2 1/2 by 3 1/2 inches and depicts Bosnian Serb members of the German SS, identified by their distinctive fezes. The image presents uniformed individuals from one of the volunteer formations raised by Nazi Germany in the Balkans, a region marked by complex alliances during the conflict. Fezzes were issued to certain SS units composed of local recruits, notably in the Handschar and Skanderbeg divisions. Such photographs provide direct visual documentation of the varied ethnic and regional contingents that served in the Waffen-SS under German command. The photograph is a black-and-white print consistent with the period, showing clear detail of the individuals’ attire and headgear. Items like this contribute to the understanding of the diverse composition of Axis military forces in Eastern Europe during World War II. This photograph is preserved in its original vintage format, serving as a primary source for historical research and military studies.
