gary9 Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Did not know if to post this here or in the police forum. Just got these two great photos in of werkschutz as can be seen from the cap insignia, what is fantastic about this photo is the uniforms, which I have never seen before, the apparent rank stripes on the arms much like the British and American sergeants stripes. The collar patches which on close-up clearly shows the winged propeller and two different shaded suggesting different branches, a cufftitle is also worn but the letting is not legible, one last point is the colour of the centre band of the peaked caps, is it hard to imagine that this could be the same colour as the collar patches? Over the years the only colour collar patches that I have seen with winged propellers has been pale blue, could the cap centre band colour be the same pale blue. One other item is the round arm badge on the man at far right, I first thought this may have been for transport Speer, but I guess it?s for some aircraft factory.

gary9 Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 I have also just noticed that some of the guys have a darker collar than others, the ones without dark collars have the darker collar patches. Here is the other photo, the cufftitle lettering seems to be too long for werkschutz, very interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
