hamtaro New member Aug 30, 2006 #1 Hi guys, What does the 'ga' or is it '9a' mark means? I do know that the stamped 29 R means Prussian 29th Rgt. Btw, these marks came from a wappenless M15 haube, which due to the presence of the 29R, i would presume that its the Prussian 29th Rgt. Thanks BB

hamtaro New member Sep 5, 2006 #6 Hi guys, Tony, Your uniform has the identical 'ga' mark as well. Does this 'ga' mark be the first found on a haube? And Joe The 'ga' mark came from an M15 haube, prussian presumably, but its in a sorry condition, here are some more pics.
