Embellishing war booty with Nazi insignia was very common on WWII holsters. I can't tell you the number or variety I have seen proffered by old vets. Always, it seems, with tales of "takin' it from a dead Nazi officer; he didn't need it no more" the neat thing about the subject piece is that it's the first WWI embellished holster I have seen. So called "hate belts" are common, but never seen a holster
