Feedback on an Arm Band

As I was looking to buy some staff for my collection in the area of Crete I came over an object that immediatelly drew my attention. It was an Arm Band (armelband) that wrote : Brittisches Freikorps. I was not sure of the value and of the history of this item so left it be.
However I am trying to track down what these Brtish Freikorps had to do with the Wehrmacht and the role they played in Crete during the Battle and the occupation.

I will probably buy this item in a while when I will visit the island again.Yet I will be interested to know more about this unit (besides the info that lies in wikipedia). Please help me out here and write me a comment on this post
