Allgemeine SS Black tunic

[d'alquen]

The May, 1938 order introducing the SS-Feldbinde states:

2. The SS-Feldbinde is only to be worn with the SS sword.

Thank you for posting that d'alquen. So if the model 36 chained dagger started issuance in 36, I take that to mean between 36 and May 38 the chained dagger was permitted to be worn with the brocade belt. Wonder what happened to have the May 38 order be written.

The May, 1938 order announced the introduction of the belt.

That explains more, new belt, new criteria for wear. Thank you d'alquen!
