The traditional Totenkopf Insignia that was originally the insignia of the 1st and 2nd Leib Hussar Regiments shows a death’s head with two crossed bones behind the skull. During the Third Reich period the tradition was continued by the Regimental Staff of the 5th Cavalry Regiment and by squadrons 1, 2, 4, 5, and 11. All formations of the 4th Cavalry, except for the 41st Cavalry Regiment were also authorized for wearing it.
The insignia was made of metal.
