Now Viewing: gebirgsjagerTag type: General The Gebirgsjäger (and their predecessors, the Alpenjäger) were Nazi Germany's elite mountain units. They can be distinguished from normal Wehrmacht units by their distinctive flat caps, occasionally with an Edelweiss pin attached. Waffen-SS units also used the same ski caps, but they can be told apart by the skull-and-crossbones pin located where a Nazi eagle would be on a Gebirgsjäger cap. The word is spelled gebirgsjager due to the ä not being available on English keyboards.
