Odulf Posted April 14, 2017 Author Posted April 14, 2017 The general idea behind this topic was to show multi uniform portaits of people who wanted to be pictured in their various uniforms. We are ending with pictures of people who are gathered in uniform and pictured on occasion. My idea is, and correct me if I'm wrong, that in the 1930's, and even the early stages of the war, service men (and women) were expressing to do their (uniformed) duty an it was fun to be pictured together with uniformed friends and family, but later in the war, all able men and women were wearing a kind of uniform so the uniform was more of a rule than exeption. In other terms, in the beginning the wearing of the uniform was an honorary distinction, but as the war dragged on, it became an obligatory burden. Here a proud father in the late 1930's, wearing his Kyffhaüser Bund (veterans) uniform, with his sons in the German Red Cross, and for contrast, a bunch of uniformed defenders of the Reich (of all branches) in March/April 1945.
coldstream Posted September 25, 2017 Posted September 25, 2017 Wanted to keep this going so here is a mixed group with Army, Luftwaffe, SA, RAD and civilians with party badges. A close up of the various uniforms. Simon
Odulf Posted September 26, 2017 Author Posted September 26, 2017 Heer, Luftwaffe, Kriegsmarine--Flugmelde-Abteilung, SA Army, Air Force, Navy Air-Observers Unit (scarce!), SA (note the large party eagle on the cap)
