Daggers etc. in my books
In many of my books I included photographs with the wearing of daggers, and occasionally swords. One of such
books is for example: "Aiguillettes of the Third Reich". This book is related to the wearing of aiguillettes and
such item is most often worn with the best desses as Ausgehanzug (Walking-out), Paradeanzug and
Grosser Gesellschaftsanzug (Formal Evening Dress).
Some beauties are shown there, as for example a police sword (page 19, page 227); SS sword (page 57);
1st pattern Luftwaffe dagger (page 329); RLB dagger (page 439); Marine-SA (page 552) and Teno (page 571).
In "Brustschilder und Ringkragen im Dritten Reich" or "Headgear of Hitler's Germany" it is likewise. Here and
there great dagger photos etc. are included.
If I find the time I will look for some, a random choice, and will post them. Starting with two Reichsluftschutzbund
photographs: 1) RLB marching through Duisburg Streets in 1935; 2) RLB during the consecrating of a flag at a city hall on
March 23, 1935. Both are from my gorgets-book.
NSKK - NSKK-Verkehrserziehungsdienst:
SA - SA-Standortführer:
Allgemeine-SS - SS Vlaanderen:

who pitily "slipped away")

I could not help to notice this SA mann in the first post the absence of a snap clip that is supposed to attach to the "D" ring belt loop...the hanger itself goes through the "D" ring.....ok ok.....yea I like these little intricasies..but what I also noticed by accident..is the the cuff title that says "Der .....and the rest is unreadable....Wim Please if you may to identify the cuff title this SA mann is wearing? Best Regards Larry

My guess would be that it's one of the various "Der Standortführer [city name]" ones.
