Tony Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Hello,I have a photo of some Germans, I know the one in the Wehrmacht uniform was a bit more than just an ordinary member of the party but what about those in civvis?The one on the left has a cufftitle and all that can be seen is GAU. What could he have been? Any ideas?Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erich Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 The 'Gau' sleeveband is likely for a veteran's group.Erich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
