    What collar tabs are these Heer officers wearing ?

    Could anyone help me out: which branch are these officers serving in?

    Looks don't tell everything, but probably some kind of administrative function?

        I thought Sonderfuhrer wore much different collar tabs.

          They are Army officals of the high grade career (Beamte des höheren Dienstes).
          The collar tabs look similiar to the ones worn by General Staff officers; what gives these men away as administrative officials is the piping, which frames the collar tabs only on three sides and is open at the front edge.

                    Rarer still is a Mercedes-Benz staff car with Heers Verwaltung (Army Administration) markings.

                    Cheers,

                    Larry
