    Default Marschstiefel

    I finally managed to find a nice pair of standard issue Marschstiefel for my Collection.
    Well used, but not abused. The often missing internal pull tabs are still there.
    Low shaft examples stamped - BAM 30 6 6 41
    The markings I assume indicate a manufacturing date of June 6th 1941, 30 would be the size and BAM would be either a unit stamp or makers mark?
    (I of course stand to be corrected)
    If anyone can assist with the BAM Stamp it would be much appreciated.
    Kind regards,
    Colin

    Hello, the B.A.M. is usually associated with the Reichsarbeitsdienst, Bekleidungsamt (B.A.) clothing supply, there is some dispute as to the location, which would be the 'M', so, B.A.M.

    Hello,
    "BAM" is the clothing office of the Reich Labor Service ( RAD) in Marburg.
    Until 1939, only an “M” and marking would be the Army Office in Munich

    Hello Colin,
    Your PM doesn't work
    Yes, issued and worn by the RAD in month 6 of 1941. It is possible that they were continued to be worn by the Wehrmacht without a transition after the RAD period

    Regards

    Hello,
    It's more than possible, usually RAD members who were called for active service into the Wehrmacht kept their footgear when they left the RAD. I did not notice the RAD markings when i first saw this pair of Marschstiefel.
    Thanks
