Hello,

in a photo lot from an Austrian monarchy soldier, i found this photo which shows him in the ww2 era.

What kind of uniform is this?

I think the sleeve eagle looks to big to be a SS?

Thank you in advance.

Best regards
Peter

Hello.

Certainly police shoulder straps and SS type collar tabs would indicate security. Eagle looks okay to me.

The lack of diamond would not rule it out.

See what others say.

Regards,
Chris.

Looks like an SS-Oberscharfuhrer/Kriminalassistant in the RSHA.

Thank you guys for this information!

Sorry for the dumb question:

How can you see the RSHA membership?

Best regards
Peter
