NO, very historic. I know the Nazi's occupied Jersey at the time of the fall of Dunkirk. Lots of blonde haired blue eyed Jerseyites running around today.

 

Yes,

Seen them on eBay.uk sometime back, they are fake, they never existed duringthe occupation.

Sorry hope you didn`t pay much, Dang Yanks
