It is approximately 25mm tall and 20mm wide. It is attached between the eagle and the wreath but above the Chaplains piping, using the two attachment pins.
This is the prefect cross if you have a Heer Chaplains cap without a cross or if you are a reenactor or collector who want to replace a poor quality cross with something special.
There were over 500 Catholic military chaplains in Nazi Germany at the outbreak of World War II and approximately 1100 by the end of the war. Hermann Göring had forbidden such chaplains in the air force, but the other branches of the military were generally supportive of the institution.
The last two pictures compare our new cross and our aged cross.
