Himmler's Secret SS Symbols

Ever wondered what those strange badges are that appeared on WWII Waffen-SS vehicles? In this video, we examine Himmler's use of ancient runes as mystical symbols for the SS, and what each major rune actually represented.

For those who'd like more information about the fascinating subject of SS formation, uniforms and symbols,I recommend Robin Lumsden's comprehensive study 'The Allgemeine-SS', which was the primary source for this video. Visit Osprey to buy your copy: https://www.ospreypublishing.com/uk/a...
