Luftschutzwarndienst cuff title and hauptgruppenfuhrer shoulder boards

[bittaker]

did both the SHD and the LSW use the same shoulder boards ranks? meaning did the shoulder boards look the same?

[HPL2008]

Yes, the shoulder boards looked the same.

(Except for the shoulderboards for the SHD's physicians, veterinarians, dentists and pharmacists which bore additional metal cyphers identifying their specialty.)

Rank designations were partially different, though.
