THanks for posting some of your collection. We all started out small with our collections. Some started with medals and documents and others uniforms. And yet others with field gear.

Great display Feldwebel68. I like it very much.
I'm always looking for these dark blue/khaki uniforms but it is far from easy to find them ....

Nicely done in your display set up. There are some very and rare tunics you have displayed.

[QUOTE=BowlofRice;5193229]Shirts
Volkspolizei short sleeve jackshirt for Abschnitts-Bevollmächtigter (neighborhood police officer), size 40L.
I have some info for you as well as anyone else who may have ABV items in their police collections, Thanks to a book :VolksPolizei Und Feuerwehr that I bought off of Torsten I learned something new, While my assumption of this branch of the police being like a County S.O. but with slightly more duties was true I also learned this, NO basic police officers(Anwärter-Oberwachmeister) would be in the ABV, To be a Abbi the minimum rank was Unterleutenant (at least that is what the book seems to say),It also seems to suggest this branch was a elective and that it was up to the officers if they wanted to transfer over to it once they attained Unterleutenant. This will help you when you go to eqquip your shirt with shoulder boards.

Friede,
Very, very impressive collection!
I noticed what appears to be a subdued (Grau Effektiert) Air Force officer visor hat. What are the markings inside the hat? Do you have the uniform to go with it?Comment

Old Stuff
Had to post to say how impressive the collections / displays here are! Amazing! Makes me want to get back into DDR items!
Liquidated a modest collection of DDR items years ago. Glad I kept a few things. Wish I had hung on to the boxed dagger I had though...
