    Hello,

    Here is a representative example of a rural police Gendarmerie officer's service tunic. Shown with the tunic is the first pattern dress brocade belt and officer's dress shoulder cords. It is piped in the orange branch color and the shoulder boards have the "double" underlay colors of brown and orange.

    A little bit closer look.

    That is a stunning set!!! Did all of these peices come together? :love: I can definately see the attraction with the various police formations. They had beautiful uniforms. The brocade is the first I have ever seen.

    Dear Paul,

    No, the pieces were put together. The brocade is the pre-war model. Later they switched to the SS officer's silver brocade with police buckle. This model with the red and black stripes has always been more attractive to me. Besides, with the strange attraction of anything SS to some collectors I can't afford the 2nd model :P .

    The combination of orange, brown, and police green is certainly striking on these uniforms. It's the most attractive civil uniform of the period.....in my predjudiced opinion ;)

    Regards,
