Feuerschutzpolizei (Fire Protection Police) Uniforms Question

[meyle77]

Did all Feuerschutzpolizei (Fire Protection Police) Uniforms incl. parade ones have sleeve eagle patch ?

Thanks !

Hi George

To the best of my knowledge yes. As they were not part of the wehrmacht (armed forces) they were not entitled to wear a breast eagle and so wore it on their arm instead.

I have not seen a TR police uniform without the eagle on the sleeve but never say never.....

I would pose the question on the police forum as well.

cheers

Thanks - it appears that dark blue uniforms were worn with or without the sleeve eagle, while all green ones had the sleeve eagle.
