DDR East German Forestry Service Uniforms
Phil L replied to Gordon Craig's topic in Germany: Post 1945: Bundesrepublik & DDR
Gentlemen What did the DDR Forestry Service actually do apart from looking after the forests? Surely they must have had a secondary role to warrant such a paramilitary set of uniforms! Were they perhaps also involved in border duties or searching the forests for those attempting to escape to the West? Regards Phil L
