The 15. Waffen-Grenadier-Division (Lettische Nr. 1) was raised in February of 1943 and served alongside its sister unit, the 19. Waffen-Grenadier-Division (Lettische Nr. 2), as the Latvian Legion.
Foreign SS volunteers were not permitted to wear SS runes and instead, they were issued collar tabs that were unique to their division.
The first pattern collar tab of the 15. Waffen-Grenadier-Division featured the Latvian Fire Cross. This collar tab was also worn by members of the 19th Waffen Grenadier Division (Lettische Nr. 2).
The collar tabs were machine embroidered.
